From time to time here at eFIXX we meet electricians who tell us that they've been installing Type B RCDs for years... this seems... unlikely!

So we've created this video to explain the difference between a Type B MCB and a Type B RCD. Joe Robinson guides us through a subject that is critically important we get right.
