Cable needed to connect RCD to the DP main switch & neutral bar.

[Goody]

Hi,

Trying to add an RCD to a wylex board that never had one. My issue is to get hold of those flexi cables that connect it to the DP main switch and the neutral bar. I have managed to get a set for a twin RCD board but does anyone know where to buy them in required lengths individually?

Thanks!

Its tri rated cable, probably with a pin crimp on each end.
Definitely available from wholesalers.

eg.
CSE Cables : Tri-Rated cable

That wholesaler is OK, ......if he needs 100m of each colour of the stuff!! lol!!

Sizes 10mm[SUP]2[/SUP] and above can be supplied cut to length.

If it never had one, then you must be putting the RCD as the main switch? Or do you have 2 neutral bars?

If you do the 16mm tri rated is what I normally use.

cant understand why you dont just get a split load kit.....

or a £50 dual RCD CU from b&q.

its probable that your old board hasnt got 2 neutral bars neither, by the time you have got an rcd and sourced the tails in question it would be much less hassle just to buy a split load board as a whole
