Hi
I'd like to install an RCD in a shed, I have 2 good units that were removed from a working installation long ago that I'd like to use instead of buying a new one.
The problem is that they don't have the 1-2-3-4 indicators on how to wire them and can't find their datasheet online/google
Would any of you tell how to wire any of them? I only need one...
I assume Live goes on the left and neutral on the right, but is the load to be connected at the top or at the bottom? Does it matter?

the LE says V/304-026031 660441
the Hager says U762 u2 20470

The RCD needs to be matched to whatever brand of consumer unit & MCBs you are using. That said, from the photos, not sure I'd want to be using either.
