Steps to reset your safety switch: 

If you are experiencing a power outage due to a tripped safety switch, there are a few things you can do to determine if the fault is with an appliance or something more serious. 

Follow our step-by-step guide on troubleshooting your fault below.  

Step 1

Start by turning off the main switch at your switchboard,  Try turning just the RCD back on without power to it.  If the toggle DOES NOT go back on, then the RCD is faulty and you need to call Friend Electrical Solutions for a replacement.  Or, if the toggle DOES go back on, then turn your main switch back on. 

If your RCD trips again go to Step 2.  

Step 2

Turn all other circuit breakers off,  Then turn the RCD on.  Progressively, turn each circuit breaker back on one by one until it trips.  That will help identify the circuit causing the problem.  

Go to Step 3.  

Step 3

Go around your house and unplug all appliances from their power outlets on the problem circuit. A few tricky ones that people forget are fridges, freezers, dishwashers, pond pumps and other various outdoor plugs.  Once you think you have everything unplugged, turn your RCD back on.  If it trips again, call Friend Electrical Solutions.  

However, If it does not trip go to Step 4.  

Step 4

You can now go around plugging appliances back in one by one until you find your culprit appliance causing the fault.  

However, if you find the problems still persist, call Friend Electrical Solutions.
