⚡ Electrical fault finding in action 👊
We recently attended an urgent call-out where a lighting circuit was repeatedly tripping, leaving parts of the property without power and affecting the operation of external motorised blinds.
Fault finding isn't always as simple as replacing a component — sometimes it's a process of carefully isolating circuits, testing equipment, and working through each connection methodically to identify the real cause.
In this case, we separated switches and fittings, replaced a slow-tripping RCBO, and systematically re-energised the circuit one component at a time until the fault was traced back to the motorised blind circuit.
⚡ A good reminder that when circuits start tripping, there's usually a reason — and repeatedly resetting breakers without investigating the cause can lead to bigger issues down the track.
Another fault found, another customer back up and running 👊
