Chaps,
Carrying out an EICR on a pool/spa this morning.
Local switch panel in the plant room old bs88 switchgear 1600 amp.
Issue was this DB2 was full of RCBOs about 12 way TP&N all IR clear,
When re energised all RCBO fine and stayed in at the same time I was testing this my mate was testing DB4 in another room entirely.
When he turned his board back on every RCBO in DB2 tripped instantly.
When I tried to test the RCBOs in DB2 as soon as I touched the neutral probe on they all tripped.
Additionally as I tested DB1 the blue phase fluctuated sometimes it was there other times it was not but in the end after numerous voltage tests it seemed to stay.
All neutrals in DBs where tight and all supply cables IR ok.
Each board fed from a separate bs88 fused switch on the switch panel and completely separate.
If any of the other fuse boards where turned off and on every RCBO in DB2 tripped instantly.
I'm guessing this is done kind of neutral to earth fault with the supply side,
Has anyone else ever encountered this.
