The RCD, when it first came into general use was for outside sockets and

RCDs were common place in CUs?


I still have a plug-in RCD which I use when working outside. It started
off as 30mA but now reliably trips with less than 10mA so usually saves
me a walk to the CU. I only wish we could such in the UK (as I think
someone raised here before).
