Hi I was using my oven, but it's all gone off. So I checked the fuse box. The only button down is as shown but I can't push it back up. How do I fix this
Photo is bad If it's the RCD push switch down first before pulling it up. If it wont locks there is a fault I would switch oven off at the wall plate and try reset the RCD again Ah can see now It's The RCD that feeds ground shower, Cooker, water heater, first floor sockets & Lights.
No That the Test Button OK switch off all 5 of the breakers to the LEFT of the RCD that wont reset Then try rest the RCD If it stays up Then switch each on back on one by one
They can seem a bit stiff If you press the test button on the left hand RCD that should trip out Then reset that one Compare the pressure required to pull switch up from Left to right RCD
No its not ment to be hard to push up you will need to call in an electrician what type of light bulbs have you got..
Omg, just tried that, and they were both hard to switch up, but done it now, and oven is back on. Thank you for all your help
It sounds like your oven element is on its way out and started to leak to earth thats why your RCD tripped..
You have a decent consumer unit that has been installed badly, there are gaps, taped blanks etc Hager have done a blank module (JK01B) that fits exactly and does a decent job. The electrician who did this install is a bit rough Yes- Hager RCD's are a bit hard to push up, a couple of my clients have arthritis and I suggest a wooden spoon to push it up- then they can use both hands to shove it up.
As Spirits says sounds like cooker element is on way out... I would start looking for a decent local appliance engineer
