[QUOTE="mgmti, post: 453430, member: 29584"] The circuit is an existing circuit (old red & black coloured cable). Circuit has been working for years. Small flat kitchen circuit. 1 fused spur for washing machine. 1 fused spur for fridge. 4 other double sockets for microwave / toaster etc. Wired circuit into another MCB. RCCB tripped. Wired another circuit into tripping MCB. RCCB didn't trip. Therefore problem with kitchen circuit. Washing machine originally tripped RCCB. Unplugging it didn't solve problem. Patrick [/QUOTE]
