    Can you sign off any work with a 30ma RCD.

    Hi, my question is. If I have an old wylex consumer unit with NB type 2 breakers (not 60898). Or let's say any CU for that matter. If it's protected by a 30ma RCD, will that pass the cert?. Or for example will the use of old mcbs not be up to standard. Thanks

    Does reinstallation of busbar need professional sign off?

    I'm buying a house and have received the electrical testing certificate. There were two C1's and a C2 identified, all very easy fixes even for an amateur DIYer, the problem I have is that the electrics were condemned for this reason and so the busbar was removed from the consumer unit.
