[QUOTE="UNG, post: 538782, member: 8931"] But the reg quoted from BS7671 references BS61557-6 which has been updated twice in the last 20 years and as recent as early 2022 I agree that any meter that can prove the tripping of an RCD is better than nothing, but it begs the question which BS takes precedence and should it be noted on any test certs Reg 643.7.1 is certainly at odds with a lot of the information put out there and possibly an oversight on the IET's part when amending the regs when DC blinding of RCD's / RCBO's is such a hot topic and the reason behind the many types of RCD / RCBO that have become available in recent years [/QUOTE]
