    Advice yes or no? On RCBO fuse installation?

    Got a duel wylex RCB & RCBO board installed some time back. It has space I think for 3 RCBO's. The spark suggested putting the garage feed and the shower feed on rcbo at the time I stuck with the RCB option as a false saving but am now thinking of doing RCBO for garage and shower a suggested...

The circuit has a warmer plate, food warmer, ice cream freezer and a drinks freezer running on the circuit. I disconnected the appliances and plugged them back in and everything...

    Help please on a sub consumer unit fed from RCBO

    Long time lurker so this may be my first question. I am a qualified electrical engineer, but in aeronautics not domestic installations, and I may therefore ask silly questions. We have purchased a property that is unfinished, and where the electrician went bust before the installation was...

    I have an RCBO question ????

    I see in the UK that RCBO's are more becoming a standard installation now. I might be missing something obvious here but I've been wondering why are the commonly used RCBO's rated to 30mA leakage current when they're only protecting a single final circuit. Surely 30mA leakage on a normal...

    Converting Crabtree Starbreaker to full RCBO..?

    Evening All Quick question please and hope it's poss. With an older star breaker split load DB, can I take out all the guts (apart from 100 DP iso) and convert to full rcbo? Are all the 'plug in bits' a live terminal (e.g behind where RCCB currently is) ? Would make my life easier if so ;-)...

    UK MEM RCBO REPLACEMENT

    Hi everyone, can I install an EATON Rcbo in place of an MEM C32 MR30 Rcbo? I understand that Eaton have bought MEM, our merged. I know it's not good working practice and can invalidate insurance but I'm struggling to find an MEM C32 Rcbo and the client isn't going to replace the whole board.

I work from home and have a number of APC Back-UPS 850 UPS devices...
