[QUOTE="apprentice87, post: 394171, member: 13534"] Ah, well.... Not as simple as all that.... It would be tempting to think 2300 ohms. [and i assume that you are using it as a front end RCD] BUT, and this is a VERY BIG BUT. further downstream you are almost certainly going to be fitting a 30mA rcd for shock protection purposes. Now, it is tempting to think that the max Zs for one of them is 7666 ohms, but it is not, as you need to achieve a touch voltage of less than 50V, so now you need a max Zs of 1666 ohms, BUT once again it all depends, as has been stated, on what OCPD you are using, AND which is intended to be the means of achieving ADS, the OCPD, OR the RCD..... john...
