[QUOTE="Lee321, post: 80594, member: 10680"] you just backed my argument up ROTFWL so in order for someone to die you say 80ma? lets have a compromise then and go half way between 30ma and your 80 so 55ma. if you touched live and neutral your still earthed via everything else [B]you[/B] would have to draw 55ma to die as you say. but the rcd will trip well before that at 30 and hey presto you live. the very reason that rcd's save you.
