I have brought over my brand new un-used Washing Machine and Tumble Dryer from the UK. But I have a problem. I cut of the pre-moulded UK plug and changed it to the 3 pin Ozzie plug, but it tripped the switched. Went back to Bunnings and changed the plug from a 10 amp standard ozzie plug to a 15 amp ozzie plug one. Only to realise that the pins were to big for my sockets, thus I went back to Bunnings, got the smaller pin 15 amp ozzie plug and yet again it always trips my main switch. I put the English plug back on with the right fuse and used it with an adapter and it still tripped also tried it with a extension socket and it still tripped. Not sure what to do? Any advice will be very much appreciated. Tony

Just the day before we had our furniture taken to be shipped over to Adelaide, we purchased a brand new washing machine and tumble dryer, as we were told that these two items are quite expensive to purchase here. Our container arrived yesterday and could not wait to use our new washing machine. I used an adapter to connect our washing machine, but it tripped the electric switch outside the house. I changed the English plug for an Australian plug and it still tripped the electric switch, so I changed it from a 10 amp Australian plug to a 15 amp Australian plug. But then found out that the actual pins were to big for my sockets. What have found out is that the rented house we are living in has only got 10 amp sockets and we cannot use any more than 10 amp plugs/applicances from the UK, we had to buy a toaster and a kettle because ours would not work, thus tripping the electric switch all the time.
