Hi,

I've a positive duty twin pump to service three showers upstairs and it has recently started tripping the RCD in the house every time I turn a shower on.

Strangely enough we have a shower downstairs that is gravity fed (not connected to the pump afaik) and when I turn this on it also causes the RCD to trip.

What I'd like to know is who should I get to look at the issue first, a plumber / an electrician / a shower pump specialist?

Any other thoughts / words of wisdom welcomed too.

Nicol
