    There is nothing to stop you using extra low voltage switching, I have one smart relay which does that, Table 53.2 - Guidance on the...

    ericmark replied to the thread Question about paperwork.
    Legal wise, either a completion or compliance certificate is required. Which depends on if he is a member of a scheme or not. But with...

    Your meter, like mine, may switch how it counts the kWh used, but it does not do any of the switching, it is up to us to program the...

    These are switched fuse connection units. (FCU) I would think they both need to be on. And the timer selects which runs. However, the...

    ericmark replied to the thread Main 'fuse' (RCD) tripping.
    From pictures, I assume a TT supply. The system relies on the RCD to work, as the earth loop impedance can be 200 ohms, in theory 460 Ω...

    Can't say I'm familiar with a TQX0027. However the connections details should be printed on it somewhere so you can check if it's the...

    ericmark reacted to Murdochcat's post in the thread Main 'fuse' (RCD) tripping with Like Like.
    I think you need to locate a local competent spark. Get them to test ALL the RCDs to see if they are operating within expected...

    ericmark replied to the thread Main 'fuse' (RCD) tripping.
    In theory the low mA should trip before high mA and non-delayed before delayed (S), but in real life I have seen 30 mA, 100 mA, 300 mA...

    ericmark replied to the thread Main 'fuse' (RCD) tripping.
    I am now confused, two different consumer units, and a 100 mA RCD fed from a 100 mA RCD, so previous comments clearly wrong. As already...

    ericmark replied to the thread Main 'fuse' (RCD) tripping.
    As said doing my maths, 30 mA + 30 mA = 60 mA and the independent one is 100 mA so it should not trip unless the fault is due to the odd...
