[QUOTE="Dairyspark, post: 549897, member: 19743"] Hi everyone So I had a thought the other day. The old style T+E which had 2.5mm² conductors and a 1mm² Earth which doesn’t satisfy the Earth size etc. and I know that if you find it on an EICR it’s a sad day for the customer etc etc. However, my question is, If you fitted an RCBO to the circuit containing the 2.5/1 cable would that not limit the current flow on the earth under fault conditions to 30mA and then make it ok? Orrr have I got that wrong in all areas 😂 Bobby. [/QUOTE]
