Level of risk to tenants for heat pump on a shared type A rcd

Newfutile

2 or 3 years ago heat pumps were installed on  a shared type A (RCD) Residual Current Device.

While we now know this is not ideal, the installers are saying at the time this was manufactures instructions.

I have asked the manufacturer but no reply yet.

The question is do we need to address this now? Or can it wait till the eicr 2-3 years from now?

    Given the need for a B-HP type is driven by large protective conductor currents (if not 50Hz ones, still ones that can pose a shock risk), I'd suggest that it's more important to check for section 543.7 compliance.
