[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 499113, member: 6969"] Your terminology is confusing. Can I ask you to not the following, then edit your post to make it correct and make sense. A 2 module wide, usually red, switch, is a main switch. A 2 module wide switch that has a test button and will say "RCD" is a 2 pole RCD. there are usually 2 of these in a normal split load board. A 1 module switch that has no test button and usually says "MCB" somewhere is a single pole MCB It would be VERY unusual to have rcbo's and RCD's in the same split load consumer unit. When you have revised your description I will be able to understand exactly what is tripping. If you can take a picture and put it on an image hosing website you will be able to post a picture to show us the consumer unit and which one is tripping. [/QUOTE]
