If it can be demonstrated to the scientific community/press/public at large that "the RCD will trip or nary a tingle will be felt", then CBE's, MBE's, Knighthoods or perhaps a Nobel prize will be sure to follow!


This is surely the biggest step forward in Electrical safety since the invention of fuse wire!


In these bleak times the British public needs to hear good news like this.

    A few years ago on an electrical safety training course we were allowed to pass a 50 Hz current between a metal tube gripped in our hand and a moist sponge clamp around our wrist on the same side. The current was applied by turning a knob, if you turned the knob the current increased, if you stopped turning the current dropped to zero. 

    Most people stopped at 4-5mA a few got to 6mA. It hurt at those current levels.
