[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 391818, member: 6969"] For a simple test I would disconnect the outside pond stuff, and by disconnect I mean disconnect at least L and N in the CU. Outside stuff by it's very nature is more likely to have faults and really should be on it's own rcbo so if it has a fault it won't trip half your house. Swap the cooker spur and garage sub main over. then you will have an rcd on the cooker, and won't have two rcd's on the garage circuits. again they could be an issue. Interesting you have a Hager rcd in a wylex CU. I didn't think the busbar heights matched so some "adjustment" may have been needed. However that's not going to be the cause of your problem. Do you have any test equipment for instance to do IR testing? [/QUOTE]
