I have fitted a dual rcd board, and everything has tested fine. my only problem is that the rcd's do not trip on the 180 phase roatation, but trip within limits on the 0 phase rotation. I have swapped both rcds for new to check that the rcd's werent faulty and i still have the same problem.

Has anyone had any problems like this? any clues because this one is ****ing me off.

thanks!
