M.E.M. R.C.D. Tripping Off.

Mornin' All,

                      on this mild still spring type morn.

Do you remember the M.E.M. type R.C.D. that had a three position switch?


TOP POSITION = ON,


MID POSITION = TRIPPED.       LOWEST POSITION = PUSH SWITCH DOWN FROM MID POSITION BEFORE PUSHING TO TOP POSITION TO RESET TO ON.


Many months back I had a problem that when the customer turned her oven OFF it tripped the R.C.D. to OFF. (Read that carefully).


A new R.C.D. seemed to solve the problem.


Last week I came across exactly the same problem. Now that  a new R.C.B.O. consumer unit has been installed all is o.k.


Any ideas as to why this situation exists?


Z.

    Quite probably for those who have read the instructions, as a means to differentiate between detecting an overcurrent or RCD trip.
