There's a fault on the underground cable 'somewhere', Northern Grid can't find it, and so we're getting a ridiculous number of power cuts.
The 'reset the clocks' routine is well rehearsed and I can't see a way round having to go through it. However, we've got a pond pump/filter and heater on an indoor RCD which is plugged into a 13A socket and which trips out every time.
Is there an alternative that will protect the pump/filter and heater and which will also reset if it detects there's no continuing fault?
The reason I ask is that we've been away for several weeks during freezing weather, the power has gone off, the RCD has tripped and the pond has frozen over and the fish have died.
I realise that it's probably completely against the idea of having an RCD but perhaps there's some device for circumstances like these?
