Evening all,
Had a call today from a customer I did a job for a few months back. I went in to install a socket for them, only to find that the circuit had been put on the non-rcd side of the board (16th board). Asked the woman if she had a copy of the certificate when she had the board changed, which she did.
The guy who installed is a part P spark. She had the board changed because she had a new bathroom with jucuzzi. After having the board changed, the RCD would trip now and again for no reason. The original spark came back and just moved the mcb (which was also powering the jacuzzi) to the non-rcd side and like magic the problem went!!
I fitted the socket and moved the mcb back to the protected side and asked them to keep an eye on it, and let me know if it goes again.
Had a call today saying it has tripped about 3 times in the last 2 weeks, but they seem to think it is happening when the street lights come on. They assured me they were just sat in the room watching TV and when the street lights came on it tripped?
Has anyone else come across this problem before?
