30Ma S Type Rcd

[Sidewinder]

Thanks John,

I "think" these are the equivalent to the Schneider Si range, not sure though, will look into it.

Looking to avoid the situation completely if possible, but, not sure yet.

Does it have to be 30mA I usually use 100mA on sub mains or is it for something else?

I bought one not that long ago.

I can't remember what make it was but will look into it if you get stuck.

APOLOGIES!........for post #21.

My supplier it turns out quoted me for the Protek RCD's NOT the Merlin ones. I spoke to him this morning and he's coming back with Merlin prices. Just to confuse things Protek also call theirs the "SI" range. To add to this it appears Protek have STOPPED selling them here as according to their technical department "they are illegal".

Sorry again!

Erm..........am I onto something here? Although not described specifically as a time delay RCD is this MK one from Toolstation not in fact exactly that? It's a 5780s...........or am I wrong?

Sorry, no.

Sorry, no.

So it's NOT a time delay jobbie then? Was going by the RS link describing it as time delay and having the same MK number as the T'station one.......

It is because RS are wrong, if you look at the technical documents from MK that they provide, all will become clear.

Please don't take everything that suppliers say as Gospel, they are there to SELL, they are not liable if they get it wrong, the installer is, with the remote possibility that the manufacturer, could, be wrong, IF their tech data is wrong, which, if you check it is not.
