would heat up and pop, I swaped the breaker out with a

Thing is, if it was something like that then the 32A breaker running the
upstairs ring main would pop rather than the whole house, that to me shows
more of a sudden leak to earth than anything else. It's still odd that the
Pro's own PSU breaker doesn't pop before anything else does.
While you are at it, you might want to take a clamp on
amp meter and balance
the load between phases.
13A Single phase :)
phase 3 to phase 1, we dropped the billable load the
electric company sees
from 37a to 27a, close to a
third. That should look good on next months electric bill.
Nice. Extra bonus for you next month then?
