    Electric trips whenever heater is turned off
    The electric in my caravan trips whenever the fan heater is Not running, as soon as I turn the heater off a minute later the fuse trips, it also stays on when the kettle is boiling but when the kettle finishes if the heater is not also running the fuse trips a few seconds later.
