I am unsure how to display this on the form.
Normally i read from top to bottom to know the Flow , from Right to Left or Left to Right ..

But this is
RCD N
RCD L
Circuit 1
Circuit 2
Circuit 3
BLANK
BLANK
------
BLANK
Circuit 4
Circuit 3
Circuit 2
Circuit 1
RCD L
RCD N

How to display this, where the break is and which RCD (apart from looking at the Trip times) links to which
 
Count from the mainswitch, then just copy how it is on the board….

Do the rcds have reversed L and N like you say?
 
Five Circuits/Blanks on each side

Count from the right at the MS…. First rcd. There’s a comments box on the circuit schedule… just wrote “supplies circuits 1-5”
Other rcd at the end, “supplies circuits 6-10”

As you would if the rcd was between 5 and 6.
 
Seems a bit late labelling such an old installation. I still have a load of markers red, yellow, blue from the old days, and I would use those to show which RCD feed which MCB, but why are you so late completing the work, type AC RCD's went out ages ago.
 
Doesn't really matter so long as it's clear.

The technically correct way is more likely to confuse the average person!

I'm working on some merlin boards that are R1.Y1.B1.R2.Y2.B2 on the breakers and 1.2.3.4.5.6 etc on the N's and E's, and it seems they were made that way!
 
It was a five year testing of the circuits

So that is why AC RCD .. and why not rcbo.
So this is paper work side of things than re-lable someone else's board
And just a single phase !
