[QUOTE="Tonytilly, post: 449983, member: 29290"] Hello ProDave, Thanks for replying. The switch that is tripping is on the consumer board I will try and attach a photograph as I am obviously not explains myself very well. As you have no doubt gathered, my expertise is not electrical but photographic or vintage car restoration. So I'm on a learning curve here. Yes, it has a test button that when I push the reset button the electrical supply is reconnected. During the day I checked the wiring for the water heater, checked the off/auto/on switch. All looks good. During the night (I'm not sure at what time) the "master cut out 40a switch" trips. The water heater is a French one (I live in France) the heater element and thermostat are fitted in the bottom, so you have to lay on your back with a torch to see what's what or adjust the thermostat. So let me know if you need any further info. [ATTACH]8664._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
