So for college I'm having to fill out a job form and answer questions on a job I've done, for this form it's TESTING.
As I'm a lowly data apprentice Doing an electrical apprenticeship I'm not too sure on some things
So the fault I've decided to write about is one time where I had a full lighting panel (control4) with 8 control packs with 8 circuits each, each pack had it's own 6a mcb and were all on a single 32a RCD, whenever you flicked the rcd it tripped instantly, now I know this is due to the small amount of earth leakage each pack and quickly we changed to RCBOs , the only thing is the question asks "What tests did you perform" and I'm stumped, I can just say "I just knew it was earth leakage"
I would appreciate any help
