10 A Fuse for lights circuit trips 10 times in 2 weeks, no apparent pattern

Arnold (problem has been ongoing for 2 years) requested 3 quotes from Electricians in Rosanna

  Have had some light switches, etc replaced by electrician but problem still occurring. No pattern to problem. Not isolated to any particular light in my house. I've kept record for about 3 weeks of about 12 trips to fuse. Frustrating I can't seem to isolate problem. When fuse trips it cannot be switched on for about 1 minute, then it can be switched on, and might stay on for a day or 4 days. Does not seem related to the amount of current the lights are using, as when all lights are on the fuse generally does not trip. About 18 lights, 1 bathroom ceiling fan and 3 outside spots are on circuit.

Very pleased. They were able to fix an intermittent problem with light circuits tripping the fuse/circuit breaker that had occured for years and other electrician could not fix for the cost of a 1/2 hour service call plus a new circuit braker.

Quoted promply, arrived on time, helpful & explained what might be causing circuit braker to trip randomly, completed job quickly, and price reasonable and no extras, and did not charge extra for parts
