How an RCD works and what it will not stop. In short best practices is a 200 page book and designed to work side by side to Standards to achieve the best result for all Safety. Basically it says that you have to look at the big picture when it comes to Test and Tag and judge every situation on its own safety issues e.g to test and tag yearly in some office environments and not 5 yearly.
