micc on rcbo will not set

WTf???

More info please

Hi buzzlightyear, can you expand a little on your post please. Have you conducted any tests like insulation resistance? Is this a circuit you've installed or existing circuit?

I get ya, very Zen

to day I have changed a metal cu. micc cable on to rcbo will not set. I then exchange to mcb holds. this existing circuit

What was your insulation resistance test results for this circuit?

 

[buzzlightyear]

>999 good

 

[tomspark93]

need far more information. Have you insulation resistance tested to the electrical main earth or to the earth of the micc? What does the cable feed? Could there be a crossed neutral? Is the RCBO faulty (disconnection times met and ramp test)

Still not enough info.

tested from live to earth on micc conductor on lighting all good

Both live conductors?

Okay, what is the circuit feeding and all test results obtained, also what other circuits are there and test results.
How many lighting circuits are there? Are there any more rcbo's or rcd's ?

Another topic Dave Sparks would love.

What have you changed it from? RCBO detects earth leakage MCB detects Overcurrent, so swapping from RCBO to mcb tells you what exactly, not rocket science is it?

What about N to E??

not seen him on here in a while

 

[Pete999]

Wonder why with posts like that??

 

[buzzlightyear]

the old breaker was bs 3871 6 amp >999 installation good

Have you done IR neutral to earth as already mentioned, what does the circuit supply.

Extraction of info seems to be particularly difficult this evening.
