Hi,
I've installed an RCD spur into a house for some kind of lift. The circuit is a stand alone circuit just for the lift and is not rcd protected at the CU (neither is any circuit in the house).
However the lift has been installed and keeps tripping the RCD spur. When i installed it i tested the circuit and all was A OK.
I was always under the impression that only a fault on the load side would trip the an RCD. Is this the case or am i mistaken, as otherwise I have a 2 hour trip to find a fault that isn't there.
Thanks
