Why does the water heater leakage protector trip and fail to reset?
In the cold winter, taking a hot bath at home is a very pleasant thing. It can be said that modern people's life is inseparable from water heaters. If there is a leakage when using the water heater, don’t worry. There is a protection device inside the water heater, but if the water heater leakage protector trips and cannot be reset, it will be a headache. What should I do if this happens?
This situation may be due to damage to the leakage protector, internal short circuit of the water heater, etc., and requires detailed analysis. When a leakage device trips, we need to press the reset button. Most of the time it is because we forget to press the reset button, which causes unnecessary trouble. Usually the simplest things are the easiest to ignore. This problem will also occur if there is a short circuit inside the water heater and the power cannot be sent. At this time, you need to contact the manufacturer's after-sales service and find a professional to repair it.
It may also be because the water heater itself has a leakage problem that has not been solved, so the leakage has been performing circuit protection and cannot be reset. This is the water heater's self-protection. It may also be due to a fault in the internal mechanical equipment of the protection plug that the plug cannot be reset after being ejected, causing the internal contacts to fail to conduct and power supply to fail. At this point, the plug needs to be replaced.
If there is no problem with the electric water heater, there is no leakage or leakage, and the leakage protection switch is damaged in an emergency, you can remove the leakage protection switch and energize it directly for heating. After reaching the expected temperature, unplug the water heater and use it. Of course, this is for emergency use.
The above is the solution to the problem that the leakage protector of the water heater has tripped and cannot be reset. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
