Hi Marcus - a couple of things, apologies if you've already done these .
Test with nothing on the outgoing side of RCD.
Confirm tester set to AC and batteries are good.
Target for 1 times with BS4293 is 200ms.
If the RCD is needed for additional protection as per Reg 531.3.6 it turns out that BS4293 devices aren't mentioned on the list anymore. But guidance below states as long as 5 times meets 40ms then it's ok to continue to use the BS4293 device.
