Does Your Safety Switch Keep Tripping?
If your electrical safety switch keeps tripping, then it’s saving you from big trouble. The RCD (residual current device) safety switch is designed to protect you from the risks of electrocution and fire hazards. The safety switch detects faults and immediately shuts off the power.
This can be caused by too many appliances running simultaneously, or something damaging the electrical wiring.
The fix for a tripped switch often involves going to the electrical meter box, finding the safety switch, and flipping it from the “OFF” position to the “ON” position. However, if a faulty appliance trips the switch, the most cost effective solution is to buy a replacement.
You can always test your safety switch by pressing the adjacent button to ensure it’s in working order. If the test fails or the safety switch can’t be flipped back on, then it’s time to call in a local technician from After Hours Electrical. We can test the circuit to find the source of the problem. We’ll provide any essential electrical work to fix the problem and get the power back up and running.
Having safety switches installed keeps the family and home safe against electrical emergencies. Call a licensed electrician from After Hours Electrical today to explore your options.
How Many Safety Switches are Needed?
Safety switches must be installed in every new home under Australian law, which also asserts existing homes must have at least one installed before resale. The rules differ slightly from state to state, but it’s essential that you have a functional safety switch installed.
One safety switch is required per electrical circuit and it’s advised that one switch is reserved for each segment of electrical equipment. That means one safety switch for the lighting circuit, one for powerpoints, one for water heating, one for fixed appliances, air conditioning, another for the shed, pool equipment etc. This way, your electricity supply protection is boosted, and one failed circuit won’t bring down your entire household.
