During an EICR I have come across a Solis -1P4K-4G inverter
I believe this has no transformer , it is currently on a type AC RCD.
It’s difficult to find information but similar solis can inject up to 6ma of DC I believe .

I propose to move it to its own consumer unit as its all wired on tray ,can I use a main switch and a MCB to comply with ADS or would it need a type A or type B RCD double pole module?
