The installation has no 30mA RCD cover on the sockets. There is a second...

    100mA Main RCD Cut Out before 17th Edition Consumer Unit?

    100mA Type S RCD as Main Switch on TT Zs of 188 Ohms wouldn't trip.

At this point, the meter would simply flash <50V. I then retried the test using the manual functions but still got...

    100ma RCD
