From my knowledge, if it's a safety switch, not a fuse, you can change it to make it cut out at a higher current, but I could be wrong. (The reason why it's doing it is that it doesn't have enough current to allow all of those to work at once). I don't think you would have to rewire the house. thanx for that suggestions mrs smith - you are right, mr smith is a sparky and he has sorted me out by PM! he's a very informative fella!
