If she has got a fault it won't solve that but if you go RCBO route it will narrow it down to one circuit but hopefully you will find fault when testing circuits. I have just changed three boards in London. There where quite a lot of faults on these mainly open and a few neutral to earth faults on socket circuits. The lighting circuits all had quite a lot of break down of insulation on them some as low as .5 mohms but as I have used RCBO'S they have not tripped out yet.
