Electric Shock with RCD
Today I experienced an electric shock in my house, after I touched a bare
cable, which I had foolishly left exposed. The cable touched my leg and I had a heck of a jolt up my body which pushed me out of the way. I am now wondering why the RCD did not trip. Last year a contactum split load CU was fitted, the cable which I touched is on the RCD side. Could there be a problem somewhere, or was the shock I had below the trip current? Any ideas? Thanks Andrew |
