    Zs tripping rcd

    I would want to get this job sorted so would just do it the old way on a high loop test bypassing the RCD! Then I would sort my MFT issue out IMO !

    Just had full rewire done, cables very close to surface or coming through skim

    A better pic would be good but surely thats not a cable going off to the right is it ! I can only see one cable and it looks like a triple sw !

    Zs tripping rcd

    Try clamping the tails to see what leakage is there before you test as even on No Trip your still injecting 15mA into the cct so you may have a leakage which puts the RCD above its Ramp value just a thought!

    NICEIC Certification Scheme Failed Niceic

    I can not see how you would think no RCD protection would of been OK on apartments even prior to AMD 3 which came into effect on 1/7/15 with a exception of the CU issue! What reason did you give the inspector and why do they have to be RCBO,s

    Please can anyone help a DIY guy? ...CH problem....

    Not if there is a break in the HW off cable! If the controller is calling for heating and not HW and only the white wire has 230v and the grey wire is not getting 230v the valve will not drive across putting 230v on the orange to fire the boiler and pump up.

    New kitchen, live earth fault!!

    They probably did not mention the neutral to earth fault as the schdule does not have a box for N/E insulation test results. Wonder why the shower is on a 5 sec dis ?

    Problems testing RCDs/RCBOs

    Problems testing RCDs/RCBOs

    You dont need the black lead attached when doing a RCD test you only need the Red and Green lead plugged in. Sounds like a connection issue,when you say fail what appears on the screen ! Try testing at the CU with just 2 leads as you should be testing the RCD with no loads attached to the circuit!
