[lost-sole]

Was doing a periodic the other day and came across all circuits on rcbo's inc stair lift will i have to change this to a normal mcb, just in case rcbo trips when lift is in use leaving the person on it stranded

thanks in advance plase quote a reg Nos if applicable

Dont really see the point of changing anything if the stairlift jams and causes an overcurrent it will still leave the customer stranded. Probably best to inform the customer and get them to contact Stannah and see what they recommend for their appliance.

Was the stair lift on it's own circuit or spurred off the ring

Stannah stairlifts have battery backup.

Not the older ones.I had one in my house when i left hospital.The new ones they have now run off batteries and are on mains charge when not in use.

Couldn't find anything mate.Just treat it as an appliance,if it goes wrong then it is down to the customer to sort it.Just explain it to them that if the circuit tests fine,then not your problem.Sorry mate who installed the RCBO for the stairlift

I fitted one for my Gran once but I wired it wrong.

I don't think she was happy, she went through the roof.
