RCD tripping when a bulb blows
Got into a silly argument with an electrician the other day re RCD nuisance tripping. In his humble opinion RCD's were a PITA 'cos anything and everything will cause them to trip and "every bl**dy bulb that fails will cause them to trip". A bulb failing?. Never heard of this so has anyone else and assuming quite reasonably that as a bulb could only short out the live and neutral with no apparent earth fault current, is this a possibility or was he being a prat?.... As he seems to have been with some of the waffle he's come up with.... -- Tony Sayer |
