RCDs/GFCIs are awesome by the way, easily one of the best inventions ever, together with not-yet-commonplace AFCIs
a few years back, I equipped the place where I lived with one, and went to test it. I had an RCD tester of course, which I used first, but I also took a power cord with a bare live lead and stuck it under a running faucet to see if it would trip (which it did; I picked a 10 mA one and I imagine that much current went through 10 cm or so of water and into grounded pipework)
