Correct....just checked and my certs have not been upgraded to amendment 2It's only 1x on any form of testing, EICR or initial I believe. The 5x are additional optional tests according to GN3, for troubleshooting or diagnosis purposes only, not for routine testing and specifically not for compliance with BS7671.
I would be very surprised if MFT testing had any real impact on RCD life.Yes, note 6.
Since RCDs are only rated for a finite number of operations, carrying out frequentoptional tests can shorten the product’s life. For example, in carrying out all of the above tests, including optional tests, for a 30 mA Type B RCD, would require the RCD to trip 12 times.
Sorry thought they were tested at 350ma?You are confusing units I think?
Tested 9 brand new Hager rcbos (type A) today and they only tripped when the Robin was set to 300ma.So they must be old stock?You set your tester to 30mA and test it.

Any 2nd opinion with someone else's MFT to rule out a test fault?Tested 9 brand new Hager rcbos (type A) today and they only tripped when the Robin was set to 300ma.So they must be old stock?
