The device on the right is an RCBO. The orange button at the top is the usual test button. What do we think the small square red button does?

Yes that wasn't so long ago they couldn't get it to trip because it was disabled.There was a post on here a couple of months ago where someone had an 'extra' button on a RCD or RCBO.
Can't remember for sure, but IIRC, which I probably don't, it disabled the RCD.
Ooh interesting! Maybe that's it!So does it indicate whether it's a RCD trip or a MCB trip? Could do with incorporating into UK RCBOs if it does.
Good idea! I'll do so at the weekendPut it back together and stick the RCD tester on it. See if the button pops out.
Modern magic.How is this possible?
This is the text at the side of the test button,
