[QUOTE="a1spark, post: 70387, member: 2229"] Recent industry research on in service reliabilty of RCDs resulted in a finding of approx 4% failure rate....in the majority of cases of failure No recent testing had been carried out on the installations and the occupiers confirmed they had never performed the recommended Quartely manual trip test.......... Incidentally some RCBOs manufacturers recommend a monthly test on their devices......in practice these routine tests are never carried out and in essence the guidence is really only a get out clause for the manufacturer when a situation such as you describe ,in your post, occurs Blue Fox . a1spark.
