We live in a new house (well 18 months old) and the RCD on the main consumer unit seems very sensitive. Using an iron will quite often trip it.
However, main gripe is the water feature we put in. The cable for this is laid in a plastic conduit under what is now our lawn. The join is in a proper underground joining kit (the one you pour gunk into which sets solid) and then it drwas power from a switched spur in the garage.
Last year it worked fine. This year, it trips the entire main within 1 minute of being on.
Does anyone have a sugestion on how to get around this, or why it should now be happening ? Is it possible to put another RCD on the spur which would trip prior to the house going (as its a pain when the computer goes down).
thanks.
