They are a dual pole rcbo with twin busbar feeds looking similar to the sbs double pole unit.Aren’t we supposed to protect the neutral as well as the line?

Does it have replaceable modules?They are a dual pole rcbo with twin busbar feeds looking similar to the sbs double pole unit.
It is in development, will let you know when someone releases it!Does it have replaceable modules?
I think he was talking about the fire in the tower block in Glasgow that happened exactly a year after grenfell probably was filmed before they knew the exact cause of the art school fire as well. I like your idea maybe we should put you forward for site safety innovator or something and get you writing health and safety standards
Ditto. Quite why he felt need to mention the fire at the Glasgow Art School is strange given that the cause of the blaze was flammable gases from a foam canister. Maybe amendment 1 will require Arc Fault Detection Devices to be fitted to cans of expanding foam.
i read that Megger have a test feature on there german model but would mean new testers were needed by all , these wont be mandated untill they are single units and costs are downAlso, how do we test the things? Suppose they will introduce a special tester for a squillion quid!
they are only specified for bedrooms in US and CanadaCosting aside there is also the issue of nuisance tripping. This is quite an issue in the States where their Codes require the fitment of these devices with the exception of some areas. The problem being many appliances and circuit switching devices have inherent arcing taking place. So called nuisance tripping of rcd/rcbos can generally be resolved, wait until afds start joining the party.
