Why would you need to change a stove every 6 months should it be RCD protected are you now going to change your geyser every six months because it is now RCD protected. All my curcuits in my house has been RCD protected for the last 25 years and i had very few "nuisance tripping" issues but on a few occasions when it tripped it was a pot boiling over on the stove(solid plates) that it is a good thing right it protected my wife in that instance. Oven element did trip RCD after 15 years because it needed replacement. The safety factor protecting all curcuits outweighs the discomfort factor.
In your last paragraph you seems to suggest that i was disrespectful towards GCE not at all i simply saying we all learn every day unless the toppies feel they don't learn anymore by the way i am also in the toppie crowd. But still where this all started a few presentation slides posted now i am made out to be disrespectful. I am sure i will be learning a lot of new things in this forum from GCE and other toppies and non toppies
Peace ✌️ out brother all good
