[QUOTE="West Sussex Heating, post: 504760, member: 33208"] Uncertainty you're finding that your combi boiler retains tripping the RCD shift on your fuse board and tripping the electricity, it might be a signal of a fault or leak inside your boiler system. This switch is a security feature that breaks the flow of electricity when there's a current leak to earth. Two faults I had recently on central heating that tripped RCD's 1. A dripping valve that triggered the RCD to trip, when things dried out all was fine. So when I inclined up it functioned fine, took a while to diagnose. 2. On another job, the neutral and cpc were reversed on the terminals inside the boiler. [/QUOTE]
