Delonghi dragon oil filled radiator trips electric

[chuggypig]

Hi,

I have a Delonghi Dragon II oil filled radiator and when i plugged it in last night it tripped the electric after about a minute, tried again and it done the same thing. Is it knackered or is it a simple fix


Cheers

Is it the RCD that tripped?

Assuming so, then it is leaking to earth. Unfortunatley it will probably need replacing if this is the case as repair would often not be economial.

have a look at the flex and plug just in case it has got damaged. That would be a fairly cheap fix.
