[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 456545, member: 1607"] 23ma trip current shouldn't be an issue. I know of numerous brand new out of the box RCD's and RCBO's that test at anywhere from 20ma to 25ma. Excluding the internal wiring aspect, I cannot think of any requirement for RCD protection to buried SWA or light fittings. That is of course assuming your Zs values are all good to meet disconnections times if you did happen to short out Live-Earth. Did the manufacturers instructions say that RCD protection is required?
