made my own resistor box and use the same socket in thehouse for the loop tests and rcd tests.
record the results on an excel sheet similar to the sample on the NICEIC website.

I should also send it in for a formal calibration again but not had the time. Waiting for a calibration day at a wholesaler near me.

If you are with the NICEIC and use a checkbox regularly you only need formal calibration every three years
