[quote author=ban-all-sheds link=1111497761/0#11 date=1112633285]Must be a main RCD - how else could a fault on an appliance on the end of a 13A plug take out the entire supply?. [/quote]
Funny that, I am asking the same question...
May be Craig could supply a bit more details, BAS, you might be right but having 30 years of trubbleshooting experience (not as electrician), I never take things forgranted, it is possible that there is no RCD in this CCU, it is possible that the WM is connected directly no fused plug etc... (sounds stupid, but I'm sure that in your experience as Sparky you have seen wors)
