[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 549761, member: 2012"] id expect it would be cheaper and far easier to pay for a sparky to test the cable using the correct equipment than it will be to dig it up and 'inspect' it and since you've only turned off MCB's in the shed, you haven't elminated any fault in the shed so you've wasted your time there again if its a contant issue of RCD tripping then id expect many electricians would be able to find some indication of the fault and which circuit in less than an hour. if its intermittant then it does complicate things as a fault may not always show up even with a proper test kit. your multimeter has no chance [/QUOTE]
