Heyy so I just turned my electric cooker on and it made a hugee bang and tripped the electricity in my entire flat ..
I flipped the switch and restored my electricity, but is it safe to try and turn my cooker back on?
Thanks!
 
It was the main switch at the wall, left it switched off but now the fuse box has blown and there's no electricity at all xD
Called for an electrician ..
Thanks for the advice guys :)
 
Sounds like you have tripped a main breaker somewhere,
possibly even your service fuse
This is beyond your level the electrician will have to find it ?
let us know how you go ?
 
Used to be regular call out, cooker fault
on rewireable 30 amp fuse blows 80amp HRC main fuse first.
