Changed a CU about a month ago to a dual RCD but it keeps having intermittent tripping on the 2nd RCD, before changing it i did a full test and all IR was very good @ >999Mohm range no faults found.
I tested the leakage with my clamp meter and recorded a value of 34mA at the incoming tails, on the RCD in question i recorded 30+mA.
One circuit was the Solar PV panel and the other a Ring Final supplying a far building office which has about 6 PC's, UPS's & Printers and Servers etc!
After taking away the office sockets or PV Panel the tripping stopped?
So as the Client is worried about data loss and computer failure due to power loss i installed a second CU to feed the main office.
The question is should i put this office back on to RCBO in the second board or can it be left as a deviation from BS7671?
