MK Sentry question

and the electrician doing it showed me it worked by showing that the RCDs themselves tripped when the test button was pressed with electricity going through.

This isn't the way to test if an rcd is working correctly, anyone doing electrics compenant or not, should have a tester.

Hell, I'm not an electrian but I have one.

Maybe rcds are the same.

That entire abortion needs to be confined to the bin, and be sorted out by someone who actually has the first clue about what they're doing.
