Discuss Domestic Help - I’m not an electrician. in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

hi I wonder if anyone can help a lady out!

My fuse board RCD started tripping out every couple of minutes last night. I went through and unplugged everything.. switched every plug switch off!

I think I’ve managed to isolate it to the kitchen Ring main. This is the only one when switched on trips the RCD. Only thing is everything is unplugged and all switches are turned off, why is it still tripping when nothing is on? We currently have no heating, fridge freezer way of cooking etc and I have two small children. Is this going to be a very expensive fix?

Thank you for any help advise.
A fuse board with rcds?
