What is it? With the test button and no other discernible markings I just assumed it was an RCD.It isn't an RCD.
What is it?
That needs changing mate. Sent you a PM with a video about them.This is a relic. Not sure what the RCD is supposed to be protecting as not a single thing in the property that I’ve tested so far will cause it to trip at 1 or 5x . Test button works ok though.
Thank you. I was wondering how I’d now test it as I believe they’re supposed to trip at 50v.VOELCB

Actually irrelevant as you (or someone) will be changing it very soon. TT install?Thank you. I was wondering how I’d now test it as I believe they’re supposed to trip at 50v.
It is indeed.Actually irrelevant as you (or someone) will be changing it very soon. TT install?
You are way too young to have seen them when they were your only real option for TT systems. I think the first time I saw one was mid-70s and even then it was being replaced!Thanks for all the input.
I knew of the VOELCB but hadn’t actually seen one in the wild. At least now I know why it wasn’t tripping on a RCD test.
