Hi all, just filling out some paperwork from an inspection a couple of weeks ago and just noticed that a x5 reading is 76.4 and x1 is 28.4-not sure if I've misplaced a decimal point or what.. Going to go back and recheck it tomorrow- how can x5 be higher?
 
Done a few hager boards recently and all the 5x readings on the RCBO's have been higher than the 1x. Although if your 5x is 89.4 it's a fail anyway.
