Should a RCD “Trip” then it has tripped for a reason, this problem is rarely the RCD being Faulty
A lot of electrical problems where RCD’s may trip are literally momentary, just causing a trip in just a fraction of a Second.
The RCD is built in for safety, to protect yourself, your family, your staff from receiving electric shocks, and can also stop power getting to items which could catch fire.
Once this momentary Trip has occurred, and passed, it is possible to Reset the RCD, and restore power to the circuit or to your property.
There can be occasions that should a circuit be unsafe for more than that slight moment in time, then the RCD will trip again, needing a reset.
There are some basic actions that customers can carry out to fix this problem.
Please follow our instructions below to guide you through.
Should the problem persist, then you should call out a Qualified Registered Electrician.
Continual resetting over several minutes can have an adverse effect with your RCD, and the RCD will not be effective, and may need a replacement.

The Institution of Engineering and Technology who are the governing body who are responsible for the Electrical Regulations we have to adhere to BS7671, they have written an article explaining the complexities of RCD's, including how they work, pictures, and some complex Electrical information.

Thanks for Louise's great work - very happy!
A rapid response An item of household electrical equipment decided to fail. As a result, many electrical circuits in my Home closed down. I contacted Bright Sparks, and an electrician quickly appeared. He calmly checked the circuits and solve the problems. Well done.
‘Excellent service, quick and very efficient. Tidy work. No problem recommending Karen and her team. Will definitely use these guys again!’
I have always found Karen and her team at Bright Spark to be friendly, professional and reliable. Their quotes have been reasonably priced and provide a thorough breakdown of costs for replacements parts and labour. I highly recommend them.
Thank you also for such a brilliant service, it’s been a pleasure dealing with you from start to finish, and your team member today was fantastic too. I would have absolutely no hesitation using you for electrical work in future and recommending you to friends. Now, if you could just set up a building and plumbing company too… ha ha!
