Ra maximum = touch-voltage limit / IΔn. 50 V is the usual limit. Use 25 V where the location needs the lower figure. Enter a measured Ra to see the touch voltage.

RCD and electrode

This is the usual RCD check for a TT supply. It assumes the residual current flows for long enough to produce that touch voltage, and that the electrode is the earth path. Confirm the arrangement in BS 7671 for the location.
