Hi i went to change a CU last night and the ring main is causing the RCD to trip even with everything unplugged.
I am going back today to investigate abit more, i have just left the ring on the non RCD side for the time being.
The customer is as tight as and doesnt really want to pay for me finding a fault "as it worked before"
I am willing to spend abit of time looking for it for my own peace of mind but the house only has 1 ring so i can tell its going to be a nightmare.
Can i issue an installation certificate for the CU with low insulation resistance readings and note it in the comments?
or can i issue a EICR and recommend a rewire?
There is also no earth on the lighting but all the fittings are plastic, so i have recommended that the lights need a rewire.
