Hello Guys,
ive been looking through posts for a number of months now and thought its finall time to take the plunge and ask my own question.
I have 2 garages which are supplied from a meter in the first garage. It is a TT system.
The current protection is a 80A RCD on a Metelclad single 6 way board.
At the moment if there is a fault with any circuit as you would expect it trips the RCD and im plunged into darkness.
I would like to upgrade the system to only take out the circuit at fault.
From my research it appears the easiest way is to acheive this a 100mA time delayed Main RCD and then 30mA RCBO's for each circuit.
Would you agree?
Ive provisionaly settled on this setup on the basis of every circuit on a TT system needing fault protection, and also appears from my research that as my CU isnt of plastic construction that the Main switch needs fault protection as well.
THanks in advance for your replies.
