My beautiful Siemens WI14W300GB is ‘leaking to earth’ after being moved and transported. The electrician says that the ‘earth leakage’ is occurring before the pump starts. Can anyone advise what happens in the sequence of operations before the pump. Is it the door?
so you get a tingling shock. Have you plumbed the machine next to a metal sink? If you touch the metal s/steel sink and metal drum as u unload the machine it is usually the sink is not earthed to copper tap pipes – fairly common that one can get around a roughly 70 to 100 volt jolt but less if touching paint work. Can also be earth detached from machine`s mains terminal block – does the machine`s cable look pulled as it disappears into the machine? .Or no earth wire connection in the plug or the wall socket. Points to check first.
