[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 548927, member: 250"] What was the actual fault with the lawn mower? Earth leakage...? or a dead-short overload..? If it was a dead short, it is possible that an old MCB has finally died.. Or a cable joint has failed.. Does the lawnmower still work? I would guess approx 30-45 mins investigations by a competent person with approved tester(s) that can check continuity, voltages etc.. Could identify and offer solutions to this.. Generally plugging other appliances in to test sockets can be a bit hit & miss as a fault investigation method.. [/QUOTE]
