but because I am careful and take care of my property, and the installation was well made, no fault had ever developed. This is why the absence of RCD protection indoors does not frighten me. ?
I suppose that R.C.D.s are similar to car seat belts, air bags or any automatic fire extinguishing system. Rarely needed but when they are...................essential.
An R.C.D. saved me from a nasty shock/death once. All hail the R.C.D.
There have been cases where an indoor R.C.D. would have saved a life, as well as those protecting outdoor equipment.
The very sad case of Emma Shaw comes to mind.
