Default Help! RCD Keeps tripping on new wiring

Oh, remove the link? There are two neutral bus bars, the current flow of
neutral seems to be:

Neutral tail into top of master breaker
Neutral link from bottom of master breaker to first neutral bus bar
Neutral link from first bus bar into the top of the RCD
Neutral link from bottom of RCD into second neutral bus bar

After following all that through I noticed that my neutral from the socket
was into the first neutral bus bar and not the second.
I just shifted it over and voila, it all works... something so simple and I
feel so stupid.

Oh well, you live and learn.

Thanks for all your help, it was EXTREMELY appreciated as it was driving me
nuts and I couldn't see what was wrong.

A big thanks
