Paul Robinson:
I have an acquaintance who asks why his IET 18th Edition RCD tester when plugs it in to the Local RCD
Paul , Swindon LN IET.
From the original post, I was specifically exploring how to do the RCD test by plugging the tester in, rather than dismantling the installation.
The answer is use the test button on the RCD apart from when annual servicing is being carried out, then the cover needs to come off the consumer unit.
