Call out - lighting had fell into a fish tank whilst guy was on holiday.
He returns to a load of dead fish and no power.
RCD is main switch protecting whole house.
With all circuit breakers down... RCD still wont switch back on.
So disconnected fish tank from mains. RCD still wont switch on.
Disconnect RCD from everything switch now reinstates itself.
Switch everything on 1 by 1. Lights ok up and down... Alarm ok. Down sockets trip. Up sockets trip. Kitchen sockets trip. Cooker ok, Garage trip.
Without doing anything else but putting the front cover back switching MCB's on one at a time and then switching RCD on afterward the RCD holds and seems to be working fine.
Madness and not ghe first time its happened to me... Bloody RCD's
