Mike and Tony, I'm no relation to anyone standing for election. I'm from Malta, where sun shines 300 days a year, and now live in Lancashire ... go figure
This is really helpful Tony. Will pass it on for sure. And yes, my liability had crossed my mind, so I'm going to chat with letting agent about that.
A landlord scrimping on costs? never. How can he test the RCD at all, especially a BG one, I've had several fail to trip at all, most flag up a touch voltage limit and one as recently as two weeks ago tripped on the 50% test.
RCBOS are individual RCDs for each circuit to put it simply, instead of protecting half the board, more expensive than RCDs as you would need one for each circuit, they are around £20- £30 each depending on make
An RCD module is an RCD that protects a group of MCBs (circuit breakers) or the whole CU, RCD costs around £20, MCBs cost c£5 each. RCBo is a combined MCB and RCD so you have one per circuit, they cost in the £20 to £30 bracket (there are some cheapo brands at around £12 each, but you get what you pay for) The huge advantage to RCBo's is that you will only loose one circuit with a fault and the circuit is identified by it tripping so it saves time fault tracing.
You could always move to Yorkshire - it should always be sunny there as the believe the sun shines out of their ****s.
Its not that great. Even Lord Yorkshire, Geoffrey Boycott, is moving out....in favour of Cheshire https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...listed-Yorkshire-palace-sale-2-85million.html
The drawing muust be wrong - surely £2.85m would be enough to buy a tenth of Yorkshire. And it would not be a local either - their pockets are deeper than Scottish ones!
