Replacing steeple RCD

[penguinlicker]

Good Morning,

The RCD that protects half of our split steeple board is showing signs of overheating. The connection was loose and i've tightened it.

ive contacted Denmans (who i believe bought steeple) asking for a replacement rcd. they've said that they don't make the series e anymore but they have rcds that will fit.

im just wondering if it's notifiable to change it? if it isn't, I was just going to replace it and do the rcd testing myself.

Thank you for reading,

Hi,

thanks for the replies. It’s only £20 and there’s a denmans in town so we can pick it off the counter. She hasn’t given a part number but I’m guessing it’s compatible if they say it is.

Lucky we caught it really as it could have been nasty.

The one I have looks like a newer version, so possibly the same as what denmens stock.

Looks like someone has already put a GE mcb into the board , which looks very much like the steeple one next to it...

afaik, GE are compatible with steeple. same product, different badge.
