If the fridge is faulty it will only cause the circuit breaker serving it to trip, it could be an earth fault trip or a short circuit trip, in this case it is most probably a miniature circuit breaker to trip. In this case, the electrician only needs to reset the MCB(miniature Circuit Breaker), and all will be fine..........

MCB is mechanical circuit breaker lah.
You also need to check the MCB outside your unit got trip or not.
Sometimes it is also called RCCB.

1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..
