[QUOTE="Murdoch, post: 499209, member: 24445"] Not sure I agree with that. I was recently asked by a customer / chargemaster to install a additional DB for a EV circuit and charge master specifically wanted a RCBO in the DB Also just looked at a Tesla install - no RCD in the system, but the system had the ability to reset on certain parameters, and the circuit for this was also protected by a RCBO I've today viewed a EV tutorial on youtube showing the Metrel tester A1532 unit and that "talks" as if the RCD is in the fuseboard, rather than in the EV charge unit. I do know that you can buy "EV" standard UK sockets for use on EV circuit that have a RCD in the housing (link below) [URL="https://www.electricalcounter.co.uk/products/Trailing+Sockets+&+Leads/Electric+Vehicle+Charging/Weatherproof+Mode+2+Electric+Vehicle+13A+Charging+Socket+with+RCBO+IP66/2774952238"]https://www.electricalcounter.co.uk/products/Trailing+Sockets+&amp;+Leads/Electric+Vehicle+Charging/Weatherproof+Mode+2+Electric+Vehicle+13A+Charging+Socket+with+RCBO+IP66/2774952238[/URL] Just trying to expand my knowledge!
