So a quality pull cord seems to be the way everyone is leading more towards.
Must admit that’s a bit of a relief if it turns out to be that as dread to think the costs of cable replacing.
Admittedly it was only a cheap 45A pull switch from B&Q... The connections weren’t loose as they were checked a couple weeks later but obviously the quality not the best...
That makes more sense as mentioned I have only live here a year and got through three pull cord switches.
When the pull cord starts stic
The times we have changed the pull switch is because the inner has been burnt resulting in it melting mechanism.
When I told my relative they were concerned...

I'll try the advise given to see if we can individually identify something.
My relative is a electrician but unfortunately in the industrial trade.
I reckon they would be willing to have a look at it for me, is there any...
That's the problem, I had turned them all on 1 at a time and all three MCBs 30A+ cause the RCD to trip so difficult to identify an individual circuit problem.
