Hmmm

A white fuse board, with white fuses on a white background, you are not making it easy.

Sorry can not show, my panel board I'll try and explain it a black plate with on off switches with black push in connection which pull when tripped push back In pushes back out again blubs OK so I think it might be fuse but can not locate them

They sound like circuit breakers (modern version of fuses)

Are all of them tripping, or just one or two ?

 

If they are tripping you have a short or other problem somewhere in your wiring.

Cannot really be of any more assistance without more details.

They might be circuit breakers instead of fuses - we really need a photo but take or crunch to a fairly low resolution so the forum accepts them

sounds like this, no fuses the circuit breakers do the job with perhaps one very large fuse near the battery

In no way saying you are wrong about that but from the OP's description it just might be one of the boards with glass fuses under little plastic dome nut things. The above is porbably more likely though.

The OP does say (I think) that they 'pop-up' and when he pushes them back in they 'pop-up' again.

So it is (was) the 230v AC system that was tripping - we all thought it was the 12v DC side.

 

Just goes to show how important it is to give the correct, and full, information at the start of any questions.

But if you are asking about fuse boards and don’t know where it is it may be a good idea to find it for future reference ?
