Customer has rcd which keeps tripping in no pattern. Split load board 16th type rcd on sockets cooker shower. Ze and as good, Ir test shows all clear apart from boiler circuit. Disconect cable into boiler wiring centre and all good. Ln+e at 250 v on boiler wiring centre and low reading of 1.3 M. Customers wont let me touch boiler side so british gas been and says its fine..
Now lights and lamps plugged into sockets are dimming flickering and rcd trips. All different breakers and some non rcd.
My thought was supply voltage but dno say no problems.
All cables tight in board etc.
Anyone help me as he rings up can you come but always busy and when there it never does it.
 
Thought that but ze is fine and when load applied it doesn't flicker trip.
Dno said it's fine but will fit voltage anayliser in next couple of weeks.
Just thought it coul
So a thorough test sequence then? how much did that joke cost you? BG a waste of space. That proof that testing by being brain washed works on the general public.
Think they pay 45 a month to replace any part
