[QUOTE="Red Squirrel, post: 522622, member: 33673"] [USER=17152]@Sharpend[/USER] it would take quite some time but it would probably be a necessary task - I have wired up a rig (female to male 3 pin) to go between the supply and meter for each caravan making it easier to do leakage test on the live/neutral (exposed the earth). It just occurred to me that even if a leakage test was carried out on a 'problem' caravan this is most likely not going to show any issue...until it trips again by which point you wouldn't be able to do a leakage test as the circuit wont stay on (keeps tripping RCBO). Can only hope whatever the issue is shows a relatively high reading below the point of setting off the trip I guess...man these RCD's really are a headache :LOL: [/QUOTE]
