Rated 5 out of 5 by from A necessity for gardeners Well priced RCD from a reputable manufacturer, I use for outside lights & strimmer etc. Cuts electric off much faster than in-house trip. Lifesaver.

Protection for all devices if used with multiway block / extension?

If I were to plug in a multiway block or extension into this RCD plug and then plug multiple different devices into the multiway, would all devices be protected by RCD? Thanks
Asked by: jim1001
Hi jim1001, The RCD will trip for an imbalance anywhere `downstream' of it, so yes anything connected through the RCD would be covered by this.

Portable RCD to wire a shed with lights, sockets

Can I use this plugged into a house mains socket then have a armoured cable with a 13amp socket pugged into it and then the end of the cable going 5 mts to a shed wired to a 13amp fused double socket, house main board too far away from shed to be viable.
Asked by: CGSS
Thanks for the reply, just to be clear the other end of the armoured cable would go to a 13amp fused double socket and then spur off that to 2 more double sockets with 2.5 twin earth, would also from the main fused double socket spur off with 1.5m twin earth to a fused 10amp and then to a light switch and then to 3 light fittings for 40w bulbs, does this all sound ok and safe?

How bright should the orange light be?

As above - just used mine for first time and it is almost impossible to see unless I cup my hand round it, and even then it is still dim. It does change when I then push the test button. I've tried in a couple of sockets and same issue.
Asked by: MGDIY
Hi MGDIY, All of our RCDs have mechanical indicators, _not_ lights, so their visibility will be dictated by how well illuminated the area they are situated in is.

can i plug this into a internal socket then plug a multiple socket with a tumble dryer and a washing machine connected to it is this safe ?

Asked by: suedeapple
Hi suedeapple, As long as you don't overload the extension lead or RCD Adaptor, so not running any more than 13A (3120W, 3.12kW) through the adaptor at any one time, then you will be fine.

Can I use this to plug in a Hotpoint stainless steel fridge/freezer?

I'm waiting to have an RCD fuse box fitted and I'm concerned about continuing to use my Hotpoint fridge/freezer without any kind of RCD protection. Can I use this RCD plug in the meantime to plug in my fridge/freezer?
Asked by: littlewren
Hi littlewren, As long as you don't overload the RCD then you can basically plug in what you like, but it is worth noting that these are `active' or not mechanically latched which means that in the event of any power cut they will trip and require human intervention to reset them before the fridge freezer will be powered again (which will not be the case with a consumer unit based RCD).
