Everyone needs one.
I bought this RCD adaptor because my son has moved into a property with only MCBs in the consumer unit. Carry this unit around the house and garden for everything you need to plug in and you are perfectly safe from electric shock or worse.

Good price - didn’t work
I bought this to use with a lawn mower. Followed the instructions and the indicator didn’t reset/ disappear to indicate it was safe to use. Product was a good price on offer. However it did feel a bit cheaply made and ultimately it was not fit for my use so returned it for a refund.

Works fine. Good price.

Hi JKH, thank you for your enquiry.
An RCD will protect against shorting to Earth, or rather an imbalance in Live and Neutral power draw, but this may not be the fault profile which e-bike batteries take so we cannot guarantee it will be of any additional use in this way (although it won't be any worse so is probably still worth trying).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Carbouy, thank you for your enquiry.
The allowable tripping times for an RCD Adaptor or Plug are far shorter than for a Circuit Protection RCD in a consumer unit, 40mS compared to 300mS, so for smaller level faults this should easily trip first (but the trip times converge for larger imbalances so it isn't 100% guaranteed to always trip first).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi there
The Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter should be plugged into the extension and then the mower is plugged into this. However, any item should be tested before using.
Hope this helps
Thanks for using Q&A
Hi Margot, thank you for your enquiry.
That will depend on the power draw of your fridge (which if it is fairly modern may be anywhere between a few hundred watts to a couple of kilowatts), the adaptor is capable of feeding 13A (3,120W / 3.12kW) but it is best not to fully load a device constantly.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Nell,
Thank you for your enquiry.
We can confirm the device is compatible with the cable reel, provided that the weeder’s load does not cause an overload. This would impact the reel prior to affecting the Adaptor.
Hi SassyQ,
The maximum resistive capacity for this safety adaptor is 3,120W / 3.12kW, so your radiator sounds like being a suitable load.
Hello Bomada,
The supplier has advised the following for the Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter:
"The device is Active (Non-Latching) Type - when power is cut to the device, the RCD will trip and have to be reset."
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q&A.
