Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why does my safety switch keep tripping?

    A safety switch can trip due to overloaded circuits, faulty appliances, or wiring issues. It’s designed to cut power quickly if it detects a problem, preventing electric shock or fire. If it keeps tripping, unplug appliances one at a time to identify the cause—or call an electrician to investigate.

  • Is it safe to use power boards with multiple devices plugged in?

    Power boards can be safe when used correctly, but overloading them increases the risk of overheating or electrical faults. Avoid daisy-chaining power boards or plugging in high-wattage appliances like heaters or microwaves. Use boards with built-in surge protection and always check for wear or damage.

  • What’s the difference between a circuit breaker and a safety switch?

    A circuit breaker protects against overloads and short circuits, shutting off power when there’s too much current. A safety switch (RCD) detects small changes in current and cuts power to prevent electric shock. Both are important, but safety switches are essential for protecting people, not just appliances.
