I have a mk sentry split load consumer unit. I had a spur running off a 32A MCB on the non-rcd side to the kitchen using 6mm wiring to a cooker inlet. The outlet was another spur to a double socket. Everything was working fine until today when i decided to get rid of the cooker inlet and replaced the 6mm wiring with 2.5mm wiring to a double socket, a boiler switch to the left and a double socket to the right.
When i reconnected everything the rcd switch tripped, even though the MCB was on the non-rcd side and the socket didn't work. I disconnected the other 2 so only had 1 spur running from the CU but still it didn't work and kept tripping the RCd on the other side of the CU. I tested the live at the socket and it was present but nothing worked.
I then decided to go back to the old way and connected the 6mm wiring exactly as before to the CU and the cooker socket but had the same problem with it flicking the RCD switch and nothing working?
Does anyone have any comments as to how I can get my kitchen electrics working again.
Many thanks in advance. Any comments greatly welcomed.
