There seem to be many unintended consequences generated by the Amd 2 DPC. I wonder why it is US who sees them and not JPEL/64? Is it the lack of experience of JPEL/64 or is it something else?
I don't disagree with statement of cost regarding AFDDs, but I perhaps hold the view that, just like RCDs, the costs will come down and the devices will improve.
The big difference from RCDs of course is that one AFDD is required per circuit, and most circuits need protection. Even today many people choose a CU with only 2 RCDs, and a board fully-populated with RCBOs is seen as a bit of a "nice to have" for those who can afford it. So even if AFDDs come down in price to to be comparable with RCBOs, the average cost of a CU replacement has just gone up considerably.
