[QUOTE="Billo, post: 492349, member: 32337"] Hi all, A quick question from a novice so please bear with. Wondering if you can offer any advice. Our circuit breaker has been tripping randomly, on and off over the last couple of weeks. There isn’t a specific appliance that appears to cause the issue (I’ve switched everything off and back on in isolation to test). It could be tripping at any random moment, whether there’s lots of appliances running at one time or even over night we’ll wake up and it’s gone. The only possible culprit is a new fridge freezer, which we brought not long before we noticed the issue. But, again, this can be running absolutely fine for days until electric trips randomly. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My only thoughts are to replace the breaker. thanks, Bill [/QUOTE]
