When it
comes to electrical appliances or devices there are a few common problems you
should always check before jumping on the phone for Fridge
repair Ashfield. They
will potentially save you a lot of embarrassment and you won't have that awkward
moment of staring at the electrician apologetically.
Here's
your five-point appliance checklist:
Is it
plugged in? Points and cords can be tripped over or pulled out by fault. They
can be turned off at the divider or unplugged by a well-intentioned family associate.
If your piece of equipment stops working, make sure that it's turned on and
plugged in. It may seem clear, but that's why we are inclined to not check
these things first.
Overcapacity:
Once you've checked that your piece of equipment is plugged in, check that it's
not plugged in to a loaded multi-board within your fuse box. Many 4-way
adaptors will have switches, rendering them inoperative them if they're
carrying too much stack. Unplug a couple of things, look for a switch or button
on your multi-board and see if your appliance will now work.
Ensure
your fuse box. If your appliance won't work, it's connected to power and isn't loaded,
try it in another part of the house (you might need to use an annexe cord if
it's a heavy appliance like a fridge or washer). If it works in this new part,
then it's possible that you've just blown a fuse. Locate your fuse box and look
for the fuse that covers the room that your appliance is in.
Make sure
that you check your power point. If the fuse is not blown, check the socket
itself for melting or burn marks that could direct towards a malfunction or
faulty cabling. If this is the case it may be wise to turn off the fuse to that
area of the home. This can be very dangerous and should be addressed by an
electrician as soon as possible. If still problem persists with your fridge
even after you have considered all the above mentioned points then you need to
call refrigerator
repair Ashfield. To know more about Fridge repair Ashfield you may visit our
