RCD trips when connected to standard single phase UK consumer unit

  • Afternoon All,

    I'm having trouble installing the Shelly EM into my UK single phase consumer unit. The consumer unit has an RCD which trips as soon as I flip the Shelly CB.

    I've read the forum post about the CB tripping on the Austrailian install and the CBs in that consumer unit have both the Live and Neutral on the CB.

    My UK CBs have individual Live connections and a common Neutral.

    This is probably a simple solution but I haven't been able to find it on Google and I'm sure someone here will know the answer right away.

    Cheers!

  • Please try to draw a little sketch which shows us how you have connected the Shelly EM and the consumers behind it!

    And, by the way: Be welcome to the Shelly forum!
