Hi There is a wealth of information on this site regarding Galvanic Isolation including this (http://www.canalworld.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=6101&page=1) legendary thread from a few years ago for which I am waiting to come out in Kindle format! I have trawled around tyring to find a solution to an issue that I have, but so far to no avail. The issue is this; I fitted a Galvanic Isolator to my boat last weekend, putting it inline in the earth wire of the incoming shore power lead. I tested it with my good old avo-meter, and it seems to be up and running, BUT when the boat is plugged into a normal domestic RCD, the supply switch trips periodically - maybe after an hour, maybe after several hours. The shore power on my boat is fairly basic, an incoming lead goes to a fused junction box from which leads are run to two plug sockets, a lamp, and a battery charger, the only thing connected is the battery charger. I have read about Switched Mode and understand that it is possible for some equipment to "dump" current to Earth to suppress RFI, and I think the domestic RCD trips if it detects current on the Earth side (I used to live in a damp old house where this happened quite regularly) so this MAY be a problem, but it never happened before the GI was fitted, and I fail to understand how the GI could cause this?? I was wondering whether any of the forum Physicists or social sparkies are able to explain this? Have I done something wrong? More importantly can I resolve it?
