Question
wherebee
So -
We're in an old house now, for the long term. It has lots of stuff that was done bodged in the past, and I am sorting them out one at time.
There is an intermittent electrical problem - every now and then, at random intervals, normally 4-7 weeks apart, one circuit trips. A fuse reset normally works UNLESS it has been raining very very hard, in which case it won't reset until the air dries out.
It's a circuit that handles all the plugs and sockets except about 3; it also runs the garage and freezer and fridge.
My worry is that either i) it's a frayed wire that creates a fire risk or ii) it will trip when we are away and goodbye freezer and fridge food or iii) it will go and not reset.
How would you task someone to sort it out? Is it a horrible long job to find this sort of thing? I have a friendly sparks, but would like to be able to know if it's going to be a complete rewire or not.
