Default Earth trip testing

Really? I've just had a consumer unit fitted and the sparky has put
everything
on the RCD side of the unit, including downstairs and upstairs lights
is this wrong then ?


Yes it is wrong, unless it is a TT system and it is all off a 100mA RCD.

The regs aren't particularly clear on the point though, so you could argue
the toss on it.


Come to think of it, he did say I might want to move the lights over to the
non RCD side
if they keep tripping the RCD ???? no mention of regs though
