We had an extension done. The electrician put a new board in despite us having had a new split load board installed 4 years ago. He said it was cheaper and standards have change to ?? RCDO ??. Anyway as we had a lot of nuisance tripping in the old board on the RCD side he did some checks. A light and a socket ring seem to be linked somewhere in the house despite being on different MCBs. He did not really want to commit himself.
The lights are on the non RCD side and they trip the RCD possibly via the socket ring.
3 questions:
If I get him back can we move the socket ring MCB from the RCD side to non-RCD side?
If we move the socket to the non RCD side the MCB will still trip. Is this correct?
Will we loose a lot in terms of safety?
