There's no requirement to provide RCD protection to a circuit, unless it is of a special location.TO PAUL.M UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER THAN FOR SPECIFIC ITEMS OF CURRENT USING EQUIPMENT, DO YOU NOT NEED TO PROTECT THE CIRCUIT VIA 30mA RCD THEN UNDER THE 17TH FOUND THAT INTERESTING
Could just screw a socket to the wall for £40 and don't wire it. Didn't say they wanted to use it might even put a cert on it for another cheeky fiver, lol
Think you have to just watch the eyes of the client, as soon as they glaze over when your explaining just back up to the door and save their time and yours.

An extention of a circuit were the cable is surface mounted, deeper than 50mm or mechanical protected.
The new socket (in this case) does not have to be rcd protected under the regs (i don't make them, I just follow them).
If we're going to be proper cowboys, there should be an option D.
Use old colours, and a second hand socket, and tell the client, that if anyone asks, it was installed years ago.
spinlondon, you've overlooked carbon dating :drunk:
I with option D
You are not providing a new circuit just add a point to an existing one.
The cable is surface mounted.
If the socket might be used to power equipment outdoors i would fit a RCD socket
