I will include 100 mA and 100 mA delayed as well as 30 mA in the question as although today we should use 30 mA in real terms 100 mA will normally trip before anyone gets hurt.
Start with my family.
Father-in-law - No RCD at all.
Mother - RCD in kitchen and for wet room and supply to garage but most of house no RCD protection.
My house - 2 x 30mA RCD's covering all circuits installed around 1992.
Daughter 1 - All RCD fitted about 6 months after buying house around 2009.
Son - One of the first things he did after buying both his houses so around 2010.
Daughter 2 - Within one month after buying house so 2015.
So all RCD protection for my family 2/3rds. Is this above or below normal?
