The double 13 amp socket which we use to power the TV and recorder has tripped the RCD. The only change to the wiring was the installation of the new consumer unit about four years ago.
The house was re-wired about 12 years ago.
We are now using a double socket with an extension lead for the TV which is on the same circuit. No problem with any of the other sockets. There are two seperate ring mains down stairs. The second was added when we had an extension in the kitchen.
Could it just be a faulty double socket or is it a more serious problem.
Will probably have to get an electrician in to check every thing is correct and safe.
