No RCD = EICR fail ?

3.2K Posts


After living in my home for many years I want to let it out now and hence called electrician for EICR.
He said since my consumer unit is non RCD it will fail and I must replace it.
Searching at internet I don't see any mention of non RCD being C1/C2 type fault. So wondering if I'm being taken for a ride?

Happiness is buying an item and then not checking its price after a month to discover it was reduced further.

If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
It is however definitely a worthwhile upgrade to consider regardless.
Where is this consumer unit located as it looks to be plastic cased, and will therefore potentially be another comment (C2 in our case as in a bedroom)

Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.
