[QUOTE="PheonixFoX12, post: 542926, member: 33378"] I understand. What I can't seem to understand is why the loft lighting continues to stay on when the RCD trips. Surely they would not be wired onto the downstairs lighting which is the only non-RCD protected circuit. They are old fluorescent tubes, I was originally considering any in-rush current but this wouldnt affect the RCD more likely to affect the MCB protecting the circuit? Cheers [/QUOTE]
