Will old-style dimmer switches trip RCD in new consumer unit?

Am about to put in a new dual-RCD MK Sentry consumer unit (after testing circuits for earth continuity, insulation resistance etc.)

This may be a daft question, but might the old style rheostat dimmer switches cause problems with/trip the RCD on the lighting side (took them out of circuit for insulation tests)?
