Miele Dishwasher Tripping Power – Burleigh

Miele Dishwasher Tripping Power – Burleigh

A customer in Burleigh contacted ISB Electrical because their Miele dishwasher was tripping the power on the switchboard. Each time the dishwasher attempted to run, the RCBO safety switch operated and disconnected the circuit.

Dishwasher power tripping faults should always be checked by a licensed electrical technician, as water leaks inside the appliance can cause earth leakage and damage electrical components.

Inspection and Diagnosis

• Confirmed the dishwasher was tripping the RCBO on the switchboard
• Checked appliance for visible water leakage
• Inspected internal components for moisture damage
• Tested pressure switch area
• Found pressure switch leaking water
• Checked wiring and electrical connectors
• Confirmed water leakage was causing the power trip

Fault Found

The fault was caused by a leaking pressure switch. Water leaked from the pressure switch area onto internal electrical components.

This created an earth leakage fault and caused the RCBO on the switchboard to trip for safety.

Repair Required

The leaking pressure switch required replacement and the affected electrical area needed to be dried, inspected and tested.

After repair, the dishwasher must be tested for water leaks, insulation resistance and safe electrical operation before being returned to service.
