What can I do if my safety switch trips?

This means that the switch has detected a fault in the electrical system. In some cases a safety switch can be reset depending on the type of fault detected. You should never attempt to continue resetting the safety switch as it can affect the operation of the device if a future fault was to occur. The cheapest and easiest way out is to call an electrician to diagnose. Safety switches are a must have, if you suspect your switchboard has not been fitted with one of these, you should make contact with an electrician as soon as possible.
