    Hi,ScottyUK, It is possible that water entering the circuits??The situation is after the tripping during rainny day, the ELCB is reseted the next day and all is functioning properly again. If what u have mean that the water entered the circuits /junction box and make the ELCB to trip, the water...

    Frequent tripping of ELCB

    First of all, any short-cut way or fastest solution to trace out which circuit cause the problem?Visual check is a hard work because the outgoing circuit is buried underground and there are many outgoing cirucits. Thanks.
