Default RCD protected socket.

Have a two gang RCD protected metal clad socket in the conservatory which
has failed - RCD will no longer latch on. It is part of one of the kitchen
rings which isn't RCD protected at the CU - it feeds the washing machine
etc and other things which are left plugged in permanently. Needs to be
an RCD as likely to be used for things outside the house.

Dunno the brand - it came from TLC. Notice you can pay between about £25
to £80 for similar. Is this sort of failure common at the cheaper end?
