Frequently asked questions
How do I know I need to replace the RCD rather than just repair it?
If it doesn't respond to the test button or trips without cause repeatedly, replacing it is usually the more reliable fix.
Does the replacement mean a long power cut?
Planned to minimise downtime; in most cases it's a brief job.
Can the old RCD's space be reused?
Yes, it's usually replaced in the same spot on the switchboard.
