[QUOTE="binky, post: 6381, member: 490"] for the record the main switch was an rcd although this didn't trip at any point. Live -neutral low resistance won't trip RCD, will propogate short allowing current to flow - burning?? Serioulsy suggest you check out burning smell as most likely clue to source of issues. Also, whilst plastic may be fed to bath, check how long plastic pipe is before contacting metal. There are guidelines on length of plastic / reisitance increase on NIC website somewhere, but unlikely to be an issue if more than 1 metre (that's from memory) [/QUOTE]
