RCD replacement: questions and answers

Can any RCD of the same current rating be fitted?

Compatibility involves more than the visible rating. The electrician checks the assembly, device specification and installation requirements before selecting a replacement.

Will the installation need testing after RCD replacement?

The replacement and affected protective arrangement need verification. Ask the electrician to explain the test results and any separate circuit defects found.

What affects the quotation for rcd replacement?

Board condition, circuit testing, suitable replacement devices and any related remedial work affect the price. A quotation should confirm the agreed investigation, repair and testing before work is arranged.
