Hi,
I have been Investigating a fault in my house today and have really hit a brick wall.... The RCD is tripping and now will not turn back on at all. I have removed each cable from the box one by one as a process of elimination and still it happens. The stranger part is this: the earth's and neutrals seem to show as live using a volt stick and show between 120v and 230v on a multi meter.. this is also happening when EVERYTHING is removed from the board and just one temp socket is in place for testing. Its a new(ish) contactum split load board in plastic.
I have no idea why this would be happening unless it has to do with the fact the the house only have a 6mm earth going in to the ground out side.
Any ideas?
Thanks
