It's nice to see a real world fault-finding video that at least aims to follow a logical process. As we occasionally get posts about how to fault find I thought I'd share it. It's also realistic that there a few head scratcher moments where nothing quite makes sense, and the value of keeping calm!

The actual job was fitting an EV but the RCD kept tripping.
The fault finding journey is shown. A fruitless call to NICEIC technical help line. A more helpful call to David Savery!
The fault(s) finally found, not a trivial fix either. The fix.
A Fusebox board fitted which somehow has the RCBO's straight....must figure out how that is done one day.
