 Mains electrical quirk - bathtub tom
I was moving a socket in the garage of this place I've bought, it's on a spur. There's separate isolating switches for the power and lights, so I used a neon to check it was live and again to check it was dead after switching the isolator. When I cut the cable, it tripped the the RCD in the house!
Anyone explain why please?
