Tripping issue with Split load Wylex DB

[Octopus]

I do have the cert somewhere will dig it out

Have it to hand when a spark is investigating - changes in IR readings may be very eye opening..........

BUT have you unplugged everything ? Washing machines? Dish washers? Ovens ?

inspector Murdoch will find answer .

Not remotely I can't

Last Sunday I had a RCBO trip at home .......... our new washing machine arrived today!

Best you find a local spark with an MFT, an earth leakage clamp meter and time on his hands

Have you unplugged all items on these circuits?

All items on the circuits on the RCD have been unplugged. But still it trips when anything on the kitchen circuit is switched on. We just tried each appliance in turn and each one tripped the RCD out. Weird the mcb and RCD that protects the kitchen circuits never tripped

Council property and all we got was your cooker is causing the issue. The cooker has been completely disconnected from the outlet and still it trips

The cooker was totally disconnected, washing machine dishwasher and tumble drier are on the kitchen circuit on the RCD that's not tripping. Just confused why after 2 years it's going ---- up
