    Possible failed RCD

    Hi, I would have thought it unusual for an RCD to fail? However, I have come across a Wylex WRS80/2 which gives >400ms reading for the 1X RCD test using a Megger 1552MFT. A no trip fail. Could there be some other reason for this result? Any help appreciated. Regards, Trenelly
