Recently (stupidly) bought a used 10" table saw. Set it up today and did about 3 cuts before it tripped it's inbuilt circuit
breaker.

Reset it and turned it back on, it immediately tripped my main board and does so as soon as I try to start it.

Any thoughts as to likely fault so I can determin if it's worth spending anymore money on.

Thanks for any helpful suggestions.


What has tripped on the CU? an MCB or the RCD
Can you remove and inspect the carbon brushes?
Inspect the commutator while they are out.
