[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 438121, member: 2012"] :slap sounds like you had the same sparky as in another thread, although this time he's found his screwdriver to remove the cover also an RCCB and RCD are the same thing adding more MCB's will not lower the load. if each circuit was overloaded then the MCB would be tripping not the RCD. and you can have as many* wires per MCB as you want. if you have a ring then there will be a minimum of 2 * i say as many as you want, start adding too many and they wont fit properly or securely, but 3-4 is often seen and not an issue [/QUOTE]
