Blowing a 62 amp breaker? That's something pretty serious, that's a big breaker to trip.

Quoted from vid1900:6.2A 230v
In NZ a 60 amp breaker is something we use on heavy 3 phase industrial equipment.
We use 10amp breakers for lighting and 20amp for power circuits.
Blowing a 6.2amp fuse/breaker would be understandable ... But 62amp? Wow.
Unless the breaker was faulty. That can happen.

Quoted from stangbat:He's not tripping the breaker due to amperage. It doesn't matter how big the breaker is, if there is an imbalance (as is the case with inrush) it is going to trip the RCD.
True that.
