Safety Switch Tripping Adelaide

What Is The Process Of Fault Finding Due To A Safety Switch Tripping In Adelaide?

To begin, it is important that you find your safety switch that keeps tripping in Adelaide – which is found in the switchboard. Check to see if the safety switch or any of the circuit breakers are in the off position. If this is the case, the power has tripped, and it is best to attempt to identify the cause. If the switches are still ‘on’ or up, check the SA Power Networks webpage to see if there are any outages.

Following finding your switches turned ‘off’, attempt to flick them back on. If any of the switches or even the circuit breakers trip yet again, disconnect the last appliance you used. Reset the switch and or circuit breaker again, and if everything continues to function as normal, you have found the likely cause. Discontinue the use of the appliance until it has been checked by Aquila Electrical’s licenced electricians.

If despite this, your safety switch or circuit breaker continues to trip – unplug all appliances, including your fridge, hot water unit (gas) and dishwasher. Reset the switch again, if it stays on start to plug everything back in one by one. Until you locate the cause of the fault. Please avoid touching the appliances throughout the process.

After unplugging all appliances in the house the safety switch or circuit breaker still won’t reset you will need a qualified and experienced Electrician to find the fault. Contact Aquila Electrical to locate the fault and get your safety switch turned back on again.
