[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 490510, member: 250"] I am guessing Mr Dave-of-the-Pro is on the right lines...... But back to the OP.... Unless you have got an RCD that will only latch on with power applied, then you should be able to test the continuity thro Live 'In' to live 'Out' and Neutral 'In' to Neutral 'Out' directly on the RCD terminals without any power applied. That should either prove something or remove some bits from your fault-finding!!! (You can use the same continuity tester used for R1+R2 readings... OR..... is this a DIY jobbie??? Not in the DIY section so I assumed not?????????????) Guinness [/QUOTE]
