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.

    Simple, more current flows, as I said, it’s Ohms law.


    More current flows faster!

    Hang on a minute. If you increase the voltage and the resistance stays the same, less current is going to flow.




    What?




    I = V/R


    For a constant resistance, increasing the voltage increases the current.




    Yeah apology's, needed to do a bit of deleting and editing there.

    As usual with electricity, the answer was more simple/logical than it first appeared!
