[QUOTE="Sid____, post: 554194, member: 37869"] Agreed. Was watching a Terminator Chronicles DVD in bed with my wife last night and at around 11.00pm the main 100mA RCD tripped again. The 30mA RCD on the sauna which I had set did not trip so it sound as though the RCD is either doing its job or is faulty. I've isolated the 1 dedicated flood light circuit for front and back floods & the basement lighting circuit for the flood over the garage and see what happens. I may end up having to get a local Electrician to come and do tests. A ramp test on the RCD and insulation tests on individual circuits as mentioned earlier by Trailer Boy. It's a shame that decent test equipment is so expensive. [/QUOTE]
