Evening all.
My customer has a series E consumer unit which has a 100mA MK RCD as the main switch. I am adding a socket to the socket circuit on this board so need to give it 30mA protection.
I happen to have a 30mA Steeple RCD for a series E CU (I collect as many different CU's as I can), but in the redundant board in my shed I notice that it was wired up with line on the left and neutral on the right. Can I just swap these around? I will still have the incoming supply on the top of the RCD but just have the line on the right and neutral on the left.
Some RCD's have contacts that open neutral last and close neutral first but i think these RCD's have L and N labelled on them, is this right? Steeple RCD's (or at least this one) does not have L and N labelled on it.
Cheers all.
