Not always, if it's right on the limit of the magnetic park of the breaker then sometimes they will trip and other times they wont. However, as RF suggested, a clamp meter is the correct way to proceed before changing the MCBs.

It's a brand new MK board, with brand new MK type B breakers.The lamps are basically halogen lights with heat bulbs in..... The only thing that could be causing a surge is the circuitry in the switch. I'm gonna swap the 16s for 20a breakers and see if that solves it. At the end of the day it is only 2 4mm 20a radials. Should be fine.
