That was on the "other" forum some time ago.

You would think so, but soon it will be totally legal for ladies to get out of a bath all wet, plug a hair drier in to a standard socket outlet in a bathroom, get back into the bath and dry their hair.
You might say where is the danger in that, since when that becomes legal all bathroom equipment will be rcd protected.
hairdriers are class II, no earth.
RCD senses difference in current flow through phase and neutral, which can only occur in a fault where current flows to earth.
So if she conducts electricery between phase and neutral (the only two conductors she has in the bath with her) the rcd will remain balanced so not trip.

Isn't the bath water earthed?
If it isn't then she can't conduct can she, as the electricity has nowhere to go?
