Thanks, Andy, of course I know these. I have experienced a lot of 
unnecessary trouble caused by this safety switch during my time as a 
facility manager as well as at home (freezer connected to the same line 
as the kitchen appliances, protected by such a goody, us being on 
holidays, and a lightning striking nearby)...

By the way: we usualy abbreviate it as "FI-Schalter" ;-)
