[QUOTE="the doctor, post: 367022, member: 75"] Hi Prodave, The assumption of L-E was based on your original comment with the man driving the nail in the wall and getting a shock which trips the RCD, however. he then is to be electrocuted by the G83 inverter. Pheonix has stated, correctly that this is not so. As to the L to N shock scenario, this is the basis of a BS7671 ' second fault situation' This point is also moot. BS 7671 cannot protect against a 'double fault situation' If you stick one finger in the line and one in the neutral it will end in tears and nothing will protect you. Hi Steptoe, Draw it out for yourself.... I did not see it either. The inverter is pumping away connected to all the circuits because the main RCD has tripped. The system is now essentially an IT install with no earth path [/QUOTE]
