⚡ Emergency Electrician Liverpool – Free Guide to Restore Power! ⚡
Power gone out? Try these simple steps before calling an expert—this works 50% of the time!
🔧 Step 1: Find Your RCD
Go to your consumer unit (fuse box) and find the switch labeled RCD, RCBO, or Residual Current Circuit Breaker.
🚦 Step 2: Reset & Identify the Problem
1️⃣ Turn OFF everything – switch off all circuit breakers and the RCD.
2️⃣ Turn the RCD ON by itself (keep all circuits OFF).
3️⃣ Switch each circuit back ON, one at a time.
4️⃣ If the RCD trips when a certain circuit is turned on, that’s the faulty circuit—leave it OFF.
🔌 Step 3: Unplug Everything
Unplug all appliances from the problem circuit, then reset the breaker.
⚠ Step 4: If It Still Trips...
The issue isn’t a device. It could be:
🔴 A faulty socket, switch, or light fitting
🔴 Loose wiring or a damaged circuit
🔴 Moisture inside an outlet or fuse box
🚨 Step 5: Check for Danger Signs
❗ Burn marks or overheating
❗ Loose or exposed wires
❗ Burning smells
