    Hi,
    I recently renovated a house and had the house rewired. All has been going well until Tuesday morning I woke up and the RCD had tripped during the night. I tried resetting it and it wouldn't reset. Then I plugged out the fridge and it reset. Then last night it tripped again and it rest no problem. And this morning I woke up and it had tripped again. This time I had to plug out the fridge to reset.
    I'm going to call my electrician today but is it likely that my fridge has developed a fault? It's an integrated fridge.
    Any advice appreciated.
    D

    probably

    you may be able to rcbo some circuits if there's accumulated leakage from appliances

    a common occurence on re-wires assuming your sparkie has done his cable IR testing etc properly
