Hi,
Having some problems reconnecting the swa cable from my garage/workshop. Here's what I've established:
RCD does not trip when main switch in garage is off, or when all fuses are removed.
RCD trips only after power is used - ie it does not trip until you turn something on.
All circuits in the garage are affected in the same way.
I've double and triple checked that the neutral in the CU is connected to the correct neutral block. I've also checked the SWA circuit using a multimeter for any shorts to earth either on phase or neutral.
Any ideas before I give up and call an electrician?
Cheers
