Are RCD trips a good safety device or a nuisance
With RCD trips being installed in most properties now, and a necessity in new builds, or when updating, we frequently receive complaints about nuisance tripping. We also frequently get tripping problems when replacing a fuse board with a new distribution board. Normally because the staircase lighting has been previously wired incorrectly. Tracing such faults can be time consuming and costly to the end user. We feel it is in our interest to mak... [more]
