When you say "trip the electrical circuit in my house" what do you
mean? An RCD trips (thing with a test button on it) or the fuse blows
(30A probably with quite a bang...)

What are the odds on the actual immersion heater elements inside the
hot water cylinder being knackered & tripping the circuit?


Very high.

Is there anyway of knowing that the elements are knackered from just
looking at them?


Possibly but the only way to look at 'em is to take 'em out. So you
may as well simply take them out and replace.
