Hi all,What is the difference between EEBADS and ADS?

THANKS
16th and 17th regs basically

The standard method of protection against electric shock

Old flavour

Reg 413-02 page 43 (BROWN BOOK)

Earthed Equipotental Bonding and Automatic Disconnection of Supply

'EEBADS'

New flavour

Reg 411 page 45 (RED BOOK)

Automatic Disconnection of Supply

'ADS'

The key point is..

under 17th ed with a new install fully RCD protected if certain criteria are fulfilled the equipotential bonding can be omitted!

so we lose the 'EEB' off the 'ADS'! ;)

:put the kettle on
