[QUOTE="phil d, post: 440030, member: 27126"] Definitely someone tampering imo, I can't see any situation where a fault that big would blow 2 fuses then clear itself. Yes I've had faults blow fuses and clear before but they always leave some trace behind, I had one where a single phase cable took the breaker out twice then cleared, it IR'd clear but further testing revealed no earth. The cable had become damaged and gone down to earth taking out the breaker, the guy had closed the breaker onto the fault and it literally blew a chunk of the earth cable away, the breaker stayed in but testing showed no earth at the far end. What have the DNO said? they usually aren't happy about keep replacing main fuses. [/QUOTE]
