Discuss New consumer unit install issue. in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Ive re read your first post... so the rcd holds in, just doesnt trip via the button?

Does it trip via the button with the circuit disconnected?

Does it trip with a tester?

Have you got all equipment disconnected from sockets?

Is it a type A rcd?

I appreciate the help mate, wait till I'm in front of the board, im waiting on the client calling.
 
could even be a faulty RCD if it trips when tested.what were the trip times?. might be cost effective to try another RCD.
 
I promised myself I would not become bitter like poor old Murdoch or grumpy and mean like long forgotten Tony, so.... I will stop myself from saying anything else on this thread unless it is productive and friendly ??
