Can you point out the trip switch?

Hi,

I'm struggling to see where the trip switch is on my storage heater. I have attached 3 photos - can anyone help in telling me where it might be? Thanks. Dave

Andy has answered your question, but I will say, Welcome to the forum Dave.

As Andy says. Test continuity across the trip to see if it has really tripped. If it has and it won't reset you'll need a new one. Try these people:

Storage heater spares supplier, Creda, Unidare, Storad, Dimplex, Enviwarm, Thermair, Electricaire, Heatstore

sometimes worth disconnection of one side of the thermal trip before testing continuity in case you 'pick up' something else........ :coat

Very good picture; have these things been known to fail

in the "on" position?

I've only come across the newer dimplex ones that have failed in the on position, these ones do a sound click as you reset!

Thanks Kelv; some of these things

are not as clever as they look.
