My immersion heater tripped the mains breaker, when I took the cap off it was full of water and the element seems to be shorted to earth. It's been there for a while so ok I need a new one but how is the water getting into the cap. I cleaned it up and left the cap off check next day full of water again, can't see where it's coming from. Any ideas?
