In another thread ...
However, is it really true that 'the era of dual-RCD CUs is also long gone'? An awful lot of them still seem to be advertised, and hence are presumably being bought by someone, but does 'the era is long gone' imply that electricians not only don't install them any more, but haven't for quite a while? - which I personally find rather hard to believe.
I have deliberately offered only a very short list of responses to the poll question, since it's really just a Yes/No question. I would suggest that anyone who would not answer 'Yes' but would like to qualify a "No" answer in some way should probably vote "No", since if they were to give as 'qualified No' response, it would presumably mean that they did not believe that 'the era was over' - at least, not 'totally over'.
Kind Regards, John
I would agree that the era of 'a single RCD CU' is 'long gone', and I also accept there's a lot to be said for RCBOs, and that all-RCBO CUs are increasingly being installed.RCBOs, one for each circuit. ... The era of a single RCD is long gone. So is where 2x RCDs were installed.
