[QUOTE="Joules, post: 536659, member: 35656"] Approved electricians need to consider the layout of the consumer unit/board they are installing. I think at least a two module wide space just after the main breaker for RCBO is a must. If all the spare slots connected after RCD are used up then these spares can be used for RCBO mitigating the need to install a bigger board. As for the clamp give it a go cos I really don't know. Another issue is that I cannot find single module RCBO Type A Curve B 100mA. The ones available seem to be Curve C so a test for Zs is a must. Nuisance tripping can be the bane of an electricians life especially with customers if they have replaced a board fitted with Type AC RCD with one fitted out with Type A. [/QUOTE]
