1) Common Electrical Faults in Homes

One of the most frequent issues is an RCD trpping, often caused by:

  • Water entering outdoor sockets or lighting
  • Faulty appliances with internal cable damage
  • Worn or degraded circuits due to age, rodents, or DIY work

During winter, moisture can trigger trips in outdoor circuits. While resetting the switch may fix the immediate issue, ignoring repeated trips can hide serious electrical faults, including overheating or fire hazards. That’s why calling local electricians is the safest solution.
