    Peoples thoughts Rcd protection

    Yes I could use a front end RCD to cover the 3 circuits but it then wouldn’t comply with the regs as don’t know the reg number but they state that faults should cause the least amount of circuits to be distrupted. All the sockets would be on one RCD so you would loose all socket circuits I...

    Nest Hello Self Install Blown Transformer

    At a guess you have fried the transformer. Your old Hager one has the mains input at the top and 12v at the bottom Your new one has the mains input at the bottom and the 24v output at the top Also you will burn out the chime too if you install a higher voltage transformer
