Hello, I hope someone knowledgeable can advise. Forgive me, but I am not that technical
I have a Drayton Lifestyle dual channel programmer and the screen was blank this morning (thought something was amiss as the shower was only lukewarm).
Would flicking either or both of these off switches to "on" bring the system back to life? Or will I need an electrician?

From the information presented above, it would appear the main breaker on the very left has tripped cutting power to both circuits (middle+right).
The one on the right, "Boiler light"? Is the boiler in a location, such as loft where a light is installed and is controlled by that switch?
Assuming nothing obvious is wrong around the boiler (such as a leak) and the switch has not been switched off intentionally by anybody working on the system, then flip the switch on the left up should in theory restore power.
If it trips immediately, then it could indicate a faulty breaker, or something wrong with the boiler causing the trip to fail. In which case, I would suggest an electrician to take a look initially.0 -
Thank you SplanK for your reply. I flicked the switch and it tripped immediately again.
