Why would the 500mA ELCB itself be any code?

The OP hasn't mentioned the rest of the set up.. There may be 30mA protection on the necessary circuits?

Also, I thought that if it meets the regs at the time (assuming acceptable Ze) then it wouldn't be a code?

I'm more playing devils advocate, but its difficult to put a code (or lack of one) without more information.

according to an old post on the IET forum, it's a voltage operated device with a current sensor to the side. make of that what you will.
