Offices where there are lots of computers, School computer rooms, internet cafes etc.
You should also consider other items of equipment such as TVs, game consoles, stereos even washing machines and microwaves. Then there's alarm systems and these new controlable lighting systems to consider.
In fact just about any item of equipment that uses a PLC can have earth leakage.
Older desktop PCs can have as much as 3.5 mA, so an office or internet cafe with 3 or more PCs could easily top the 10mA limit.
I believe the NICEIC video even shows earth leakage from something connected to a fish tank?
