Discuss RCD question in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

Yes if you were working on a split board Telectrix agree as you would have the mcb for overload protection and that 63amp RCD would be covering them.

I used the lighting example for a 6 or 10 amp RCD to be honest. I could have used something that took a 63amp supply. But off the top of my head could not think of anything domestically that would use that much lol. Could have gone into something commercial but then you might be pushed to find something single phase taking that much.

It was just to explain the use of the RCD, sorry for any confusion
 
Where abouts can I find a comprehesive list of all lables i.e danger ident and other notices according to the regs.Thanks guys
 
Well the onsite guide has a few pages and there is some stuff in bs7671 about where they go and why.I was after a kind of list of types a little less wordy,I mean its pretty obvious why we have them and where they need to go isn't it?
