    Code for no 30mA protection on lights?

    411.5.2 says a RCD doesnt need to be fitted, but is preferred. 701.411.3.3 is for rooms containing a bath or shower, so you have one or more of those in the property? Edit are any cables buried in walls?

    Not paid enough for what we do

    Tell me about it, been working with some shopfitters who are a decent bunch of lads. But their bosses dont trust them so they are running the job from the office over 100 miles away, yet when things go wrong they they are immediately trying to blame everyone else.
