Could anyone share any tips to reduce the chance of nuisance tripping when working with a split load board?

Could anyone share any tips to reduce the chance of nuisance tripping when working with a split load board?

How do you handle the usual issue when working in older properties with split load boards: Working on the kitchen sockets, you need to cut a cable or the neutral conductor touches the CPC — ping! Off goes the main RCD, along with the customer’s Wi-Fi…

I know the usual tricks to minimise this happening, but the best solution to me still seems to be disconnecting the neutral at the board. However, on a small job? And when the consumer unit looks like this, who is realistically going to spend the time identifying the correct neutral conductor?
