A friend has a house in France. He's on a 9kW tariff, and after the meter there's a three phase 15A 650mA RCD.
Specifically the RCD is marked "650ma", and "manufactured 1967". On the sealed side the RCD is adjustable from 5A to 30A (IIRC) in 5A increments. The sealed side (top) also covers the four terminals from the meter. The unsealed side (bottom) has the four terminals for a CU.
The DNO fuses are in a sealed enclosure. It is not possible to determine their rating.
Currently everything is wire into the RCD, so if it trips, everything goes... darkness, and silence descends.
It would be easier, and safer to have each circuit on it's own breaker, but the options appear to be limited to C10.
Does anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks in advance for all your clever ideas!
