    Collective thoughts about issue… Pub kitchen

    I would definitely change to 16 A Commando sockets with Isolators. Fixed load so short circuit protection only required. Swap the RCBO for a 32 Amp and make sure it's a "Type A" tripping characteristic. Not surprised it keeps tripping. I would put an a clip on ammeter on the cable, I think you...
