Thanks.He refers to it as the 30ma main switch in #1.

Thanks.
Just the circuit to the inverter. Which is on its own 2 way consumer unit.
Been there, done that.Re# 26 - see #22
The reference you have provided indicates that where required, B type RCDs should be used. i.e. circuits of locations containing baths or showers, socket-outlets or cables concealed in walls.Answer yourself - I will be interested to read your reasoning.
I have provided a reference which explains why it is right an RCD type B is intalled because there is no dc - ac side galvanic isolation. It may well be the manufacturer of the in-use Sunny Boy inverter says one is not required - one for the OP to clarify - though for me the presence of the type B RCD indicates that the installer has read and abided by the manufacturer's instructions.
