Why Does My Safety Switch Keep Tripping?

You may not know it, but you have safety switches in your home and, probably, in many of your electronic devices, too. These switches monitor the flow of electricity through the wiring. They can detect changes in flow or imbalances in energy in vs. energy out. They respond fast, sometimes within fractions of a second. Their response it turn off the flow of energy through that wire, which also turns off the appliance or device and can stop the flow of power to part of your home.

This is called tripping your safety switch. It’s annoying, but it’s there for your safety. These switches can trip for a number of reasons.

  • Your device or appliance is damaged or faulty. Something has gone wrong and the current is not flowing through it as it should.
  • Damaged wiring. Over time, wires can sustain damage, just like anything else. If your safety switches keep tripping, have the wiring checked in nearby fixtures and appliances.
  • Bad weather. Some switches are sensitive to moisture and to the power surges that can come from nearby lightning strikes, etc.
  • A broken switch. Sometimes, the switch itself stops working well. Replacing it will solve your tripping problems.
  • Too many appliances. If you have too many things on the same circuit, each can leak a small amount of energy. This can mean that the switch is always just about to flip. One tiny change can send it over the edge.

If you are having trouble with safety switches that keep tripping, give your trusted melbourne electrician a call. We’ll help you get the problem solved fast!

Having used Service Experts for our recent renovation has proved an absolute success. Starting off with the plumbing team, Josh first came in and assessed the situation and put us on the right course. Then we had Kevin and Luke come in. Luke fitted off our kitchen to a very high standard and Kevin fitted off our powder room with excellence. We also had the electrical team come in and do some major work. The expertise shown by Dan, Stefan, Harley and Cody was fantastic to say the least.

Very happy with all our experiences with service experts. Shameel in particular today was very professional, friendly and went above and beyond when he was fixing our basin mixer. Would highly recommend.

For partially blocked and damaged toilet drain below ground. Remedy was to clear and re-line drain. Very professional and on-time appointments. Helpful attention by attending personel. Very satisfied with investigation and repair. Believed the cost was relatively high. Will consider their services in future and will investigate costs further. Believe they are a good and professional company.

shameel was very helpful. He came, explained what had to be done clearly and then gave a quote. It wasn't cheap! But he then set-about doing it straight away. He has a pleasant, very friendly manner. There were no hassles, the job was competently done.
