[QUOTE="pewter, post: 425336, member: 15463"] i did that. clear to all other circuits. i disconnected C7 then kettle on C3 tripped RCD. (earlier before 16:00 it didnt) I put everything on 1 RCD and it still did it. the RCD test buttons worked at 12:00 didnt work at 16:00. i brought them home and test buttons work fine. I struggled to find a pattern as to why it was tripping. Towards the end TV and low current using equipment was ok. Kettle or fridge or any other larger load appliance made it trip, even though earlier it didnt make it trip I considered that all 4 of the MK RCDs were faulty (2 it came with and 2 i had on my van). I considered there ketle and fridges being knackered, even though there kettle is brand new. The RCDs working at my house is what makes me think it is a supply problem [/QUOTE]
