Erm, what is the point we discuss RCCB on this matter? Its really trip after the neutral cable disconnect, and I use it for year, never trip even thunderstorm, the only disadvantages is expensive.
I'm not proffesional on eletrical, but the facts is it trip after the faulty neutral cable disconnect, and whole house short circuit with few appliances, bulbs, adapter burned. Wireman take hours to troubleshoot, issue solve after he connect back the neutral cable.
Base on I check on chatgpt, the answer also meet what the PW4 wireman said :

No, you should not disconnect the neutral wire while leaving the live and earth wires connected, especially with the current on. This is dangerous for several reasons:
Electrical Shock Hazard: Disconnecting the neutral while the live wire is still connected can create a dangerous situation where the exposed wires or connected devices may still carry live electricity. This increases the risk of electrical shock.
Potential Damage to Equipment: If the fan or any other electrical device is designed to use both the live and neutral wires, disconnecting the neutral can cause improper operation or even damage the equipment.
Fire Risk: Without a proper return path (neutral), the electrical system may behave unpredictably, potentially causing overheating, short circuits, or fires.
I'm not going to argue anything, just want to know the truth and prevent it happen again in future. Anyone with relevant knowledge or experience can share info with me please, Appreciate.
Cannot disconnect neutral. Sure boom because of phase to phase is 415V.I'm not proffesional on eletrical, but the facts is it trip after the faulty neutral cable disconnect, and whole house short circuit with few appliances, bulbs, adapter burned.

Since the point of issue is too many neutrals tapping illegally into the fan neutral, what are those other two circuits powering? Does running a "patch cable" (exposed new cable) back to DB neutral busbar keep the power online steady?
Did wireman check that those 3 neutrals are actual neutrals and not swapped? (there is such possibility in hack wiring that the live and neutral are swapped)
