[QUOTE="steptoe, post: 8880, member: 7"] might need to check that out here then batty, thanks,(perhaps kitchen on traditional ring then?!) I have had cookers trip RCDs before, tho tbh prob not solely cookers fault, just a communal leakage where ckr/oven pushes it over limit. really dont see a need for smokes(2 smokes 1 heat) to be on 30mA, tho your comments regards weekly check taken on board. each bedroom on a 16 radial and living room on 2 radials, tv etc on 1, other skts on another.(purely down to leakages from plasma(heres hoping she allows me one), pc etc, not load, all upstairs on RCD(main bed RCBO), L/R RCD, kitchen RCBOs. lights will be spider system, 1 up, 1 down(non RCD as energy lamps trip them sometimes, (as do son/mercury O/S lights) landing/smokes on own so maybe RCD possible and very noticable. bathroom will be shower, down fused em light and heated mirror, 1 MCB/RCBO. unsure yet as to outside supply/shed/socket, will deffo be 30mA protected but RCBO or RCD not sure as welder etc has seriously high leakage current so unknown if RCBO will hold discrepancy enough. maybe sole additional RCD for this.(?)
