    Faulty RCD tripping on the button but not via the tester

    What should you do if a client has a CU that is a split board protected by 2 * 63Amp 30mA double pole RCCDs, you took Zs and tested both RCCDs by their buttons before starting work. But on completion of work, one of the RCCDs, when tested via tester, would not trip, the other operated as expected!

    What do we think the red button does?

    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?

    Does a 20amp emergency stop button exist?

    I’ve been asked to provide an emergency stop button for a circuit rated at 20amps. I’ve never installed one before and only really found 10amp buttons at my local wholesaler. I can put a contactor in, no problem but was just interested to see if you can get them?

    Can I use this switch button to turn an AC/DC PSU on and off?

    I would like to control a Power supply AC/DC connected to mains with an input of 230v (2.4A/115VAC; 1.2A/230VAC) and output 5v / 40A (200Watts). Can I use a switch button rated 3 A @ 250 V AC to turn it on and off? It would be one of these or something similar.
