Heh, ground fault interrupters should probably be required on every circuit.

- duskwuff 11y agoThat only works if the device is grounded, and the fault is to ground. Neither is the case here. :(
- makomk 11y agoThe most likely danger with this fault is that someone would touch both the live device and ground, causing a path to ground. This would cause any RCD to trip. It's obvious that whoever owned this didn't have one installed because even the cable shorting to a grounded radiator didn't cause a trip.
