Probably got a bit lucky here. Did Zdb and didn’t visually see what was going on, been testing Easy 9 boards this week so the line on the right didn’t really click with me. Turned the main switch on to do the RCD tests and my eyes caught how the cables were coming into the back of the board so I was wiggling round right next to the neutral bar, then I saw it ?.
Brings me back to the discussion about cooker isolators and the requirements for one or notNasty!
About 20 years ago I turned a Wylex off at main switch, cut through a T+E cable with damaged wire cutters, got a right bolt and blew the main fuse. Whole board was reversed.Probably got a bit lucky here. Did Zdb and didn’t visually see what was going on, been testing Easy 9 boards this week so the line on the right didn’t really click with me.

The more you use voltsticks the more you depend on them
I don't go near anything without one
i have 3 of them in my toolbag. 1 is slightly different.it has a forked business end, so in a bunch of conductors, as you sometimes get in multiple switches. it don't pickupfrom adjacent cables. you just put the forked bit over the suspect conductor.L
