could be leakage of the mains filter in the machine, if you test on the
plug of the washing machine, what impedance do you see across E&L, and
E&N ... megger would be better than a multimeter if you have one.


Could be a chafed cable connection e.g. neutral to earth (if it was live
to earth or to neutral it would be fuses or MCBs tripping)

Did you read the bit where he said 'it tripped with the washing machine
UNPLUGGED

Clearly the fault is not with the washing machine: that is simply the
trigger.
