The Importance of Regular R.C.D. Testing.

  • That's rather old “news” and seems not to describe the whole picture. Even if the grill of an extractor fan had become live, why was the victim touching it whilst showering?

    (There is a class II fan just above my right ear when I take a shower.)

    Let's not forget that an RCD does not limit the current, just it's duration.

    Those houses are not modern and I doubt that the wiring was either. Any RCD was probably sockets only.
