Higher permitted zs on a rcbo protected circuit

Highspark

Hi all am looking for thoughts on a zs slightly higher than max permitted zs 

I was testing a large holiday let  with a 100 amp three phase supply  and a 3 phase distribution board with all rcbo c type  installation was tidy bar a few items needed  addresses and the socket circuits are poorly design 2.5 ring final circuit on c type rcbo and are wee bit over the max zs  just looking for thoughts and regulation on how to code this I would recommend change for b type  but there are 7 crabtree rcbo what are around  £30+ each and just looking for justification for them for client

    Assuming 30 mA residual current rating of the RCBO's, it sounds very strange to have Zs > 1667 Ω

    What is Ze ?

    Is volt-drop on the circuits OK?
