Does anyone know what RCD fault he is talking about

[King84]

Hi
Basically I have visited a youtube link of another electrician and he is talking about how many electricians find RCD fault very hard to resolve and he mentioned it takes less than 3 minutes using the method he mentioned but not completely hence its really puzzling me so if anyone could explain this.

(If you got Dual RCD board, You can disconnect some of the rn which is obviously neutral and you have to disconnect them from one of the circuits and you gotto be careful as if its got load on it then it could still be 230V on it so just energise the circuit and put in connectors and make sure you try and draw out the load so you get that out and with in 3 minutes you can find an RCD problem)

This was very hard to grasp even upon question he didnt reply but still bothers me as we go standard by IR on circuits to find RCD fault but like how this could find out in 3 minutes with very weirdly explained method if anyone more experienced knows what this means, I really appreciate
cheers

I don't mind cross posting but why did it have to be one of Luciens super posts.

Did anyone mention smart meters tripping RCDs just by being close by?



That’s a winking smilie… to signify that I may or may not be absolutely serious about the above statement.

In attempting to solicit more info from the OP I managed to shift from uncertain to perplexed. I watched the video from the point suggested by OP and quickly understood the source of their confusion. Guy in the video is probably a very nice bloke, but it seemed as though he was babbling to a mate at lunchtime.
