    RCBO didn't manually turn off

    Hi all, Turned off RCBO (Lewden B32 6kA) to fit new socket. I always test for voltage with both a volt stick and voltage tester. Volt stick went mad. Went back to check the RCBO and its switch was in down position but for some reason not actually "off". Seemed a bit wiggly - switch wasn't...

    RCBO energy consumption

    RCBOs consume between 1.5 and 2.5 watts for each pole - according to Wylex. Have a CU with largish bank of DP RCBOs then the annual cost of just having RCBOs is substantial. It is not just a few quid a year in electricity costs to have them. My question is: Do RCBOs still consume electricity...

    RCBO 'stuttered' tripping when test button is pressed

    Just wondering what this might be. It was a brand new Schneider RCBO fit into an older Square D board. RCBO fit on the non RCD side. Everything working fine, load is on and pulling. I always press the test buttons on the RCBO's just to check, and this time the switch 'stuttered', sort of...

    RCBO suitable for circuit with no earth?

    I've just started at a new church and the electrics are bit of a shambles. I'm not going to be touching them as I'm not qualified, but one thing I have been told is this, which I'm not sure is correct (and really doesn't sound right). Sometime in the 90's the building was rewired by SEEBoard...
