Hi Guy's
I know this may seem a bit of a too basic question for this forum but bare with me as it is still above your average wire jerker's knowledge.
Will an RCD still work without a Neutral/Earth Combo when IT Earthing is used? As a Marine Electrician I've always learn't NO it won't. If this is indeed the case then why not?
I once experimented on a vessel that had some installed with an RCD tester and the RCD's wouldn't trip until 50mA which is over the safe shock threshold, but even then I was told that the testing unit did not fully emulate a real life electric shock synario.
Thanks in advance & Merry Xmas
