[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 523092, member: 250"] Erm.. NO.. from what I understand and have read.. you haven't actually PROVED much so far.. Basic essential rule is.. "Assume EVERYTHING is faulty until you have PROVED otherwise".. So far without any ramp tests you haven't actually PROVED that you don't have an oversensitive RCD, (or multiple oversensitive RCD's). So.. IMHO you have got to test and prove the FULL operating characteristics of each & every RCD.. Plus the insulation resistance values for each and every circuit supplied by those RCD's.. Then look at what is regularly connected and if any natural leakage is evident... (Sorry if I have missed something you have already stated.. But I think there are still too many unknowns that need to be resolved.) 🍺 [/QUOTE]
