Is this right?

First of all I suspect it is our iron that keeps causing the problem as it has a bad leak on it and I think the water is getting onto the terminals so I've told my wife that we're getting a new one ASAP.

Anyway, was doing a pile of ironing this morning while watching tv and the RCCB tripped on 3 separate occasions seemingly randomly.

I was under the impression though that the MCB should go rather than the RCCB. I'm not educated enough to know either way but if someone could explain I would appreciate it.
