Common Electrical Faults We Find in London
Our experienced electricians diagnose and repair a wide range of electrical faults across London, from RCDs that keep tripping and dead short faults to circuit tracing, power loss, and faulty sockets. Explore some of the most common problems we solve and learn how our professional electrical fault finding service identifies the root cause quickly and safely.
📍 Chiswick
RCD Keeps Tripping
A repeatedly tripping RCD often indicates earth leakage, faulty wiring or a defective appliance. We carry out comprehensive testing to identify the exact cause.
📍 Kew
Electrical Fault Finding
When an electrical fault isn’t immediately obvious, we use specialist testing equipment to accurately locate the problem and carry out safe, long-lasting repairs.
📍 Putney
Socket Not Working — Earth Fault Found
Called out after a customer reported sockets with no earth. We traced the fault to a disconnected CPC (earth wire) at the socket — and found the circuit had been wired with undersized 1.5mm² cable. Ran a new 2.5mm² cable and reconnected the earth correctly, restoring safe protection to the whole circuit.
📍 Richmond
Fuse Keeps Tripping
If your fuse or circuit breaker keeps tripping, there’s usually an underlying electrical fault. We diagnose the cause and repair it safely instead of simply resetting the breaker.
📍 London
Power Loss in One Room
Lost power to part of your property? We trace faults affecting sockets, lighting circuits and ring mains to restore your electrical supply safely.
📍 Chiswick

Need to locate hidden cables or identify a faulty circuit? Our circuit tracing service pinpoints damaged wiring and electrical faults with minimal disruption.

Electrician's Tip:
One of the most common issues we find during electrical fault finding is exposed cable entries without the correct IP-rated protection. Even if everything appears to be working, moisture can enter over time and cause electrical faults, nuisance tripping or cable deterioration.
If you notice exposed wiring outside your property, it’s worth having it inspected before it becomes a more costly repair.

Frequently Asked Questions – Electrical Fault Finding London
How much does electrical fault finding cost in London?
Our electrical fault finding service starts at £80 for the first hour, which includes professional fault diagnosis and electrical testing. If additional investigation or repairs are required, we will provide a clear quotation before any further work begins.
Why does my RCD keep tripping?
A tripping RCD is usually caused by earth leakage, a faulty appliance, or damaged wiring. Our electricians carry out comprehensive testing to find the exact cause rather than simply resetting it.
Why does my fuse keep tripping?
A fuse or breaker that keeps tripping almost always points to an underlying fault, not a random glitch. We diagnose the real cause and repair it properly, rather than offering a temporary fix.
Why have I lost power to one room but not the rest of the house?
This usually means a fault on a specific circuit — a socket, lighting ring, or ring main. We trace the affected circuit to find exactly where the problem lies.
What is circuit tracing and do I need it?
Circuit tracing locates hidden cables or pinpoints a faulty circuit without unnecessary disruption to your walls or property. It’s especially useful when a fault isn’t visible or obvious.
Do you offer same-day fault finding in London?
Yes. In most cases, we diagnose and repair the fault on the same visit, and explain what caused it before we leave.
Are you qualified to carry out electrical fault finding?
Yes — SMR Group is NAPIT-approved, fully insured, and our electricians use professional testing equipment to diagnose faults safely and accurately.
