Hi.

Not in the electrical trade so please bare with me.

I need a cooker switch replacing in my kitchen, it has a socket incorporated with it and is an old looking MK one. My fuse board has half of it RCD protected, all the 32A circuits but not the lighting or the cooker circuit. When I get an electrician in to replace the cooker switch, I want to have one with a socket incorporated still as this is what my fridge freezer is plugged in to, will he need to add in an RCD/change my fuse board? There is no room to add another breaker on the RCD side. Or could an RCBO be used instead maybe?

Just like to know so I know roughly what I will be having to pay out for.

Thanks.
 
A simple accessory change will not require any further changes to the installation..... Unless the Zs test reveals any issues

Agreed, if it one of the square style units the MK part Nos are K5011 WHI for a flush fitting or K5001 WHI for a surface fitting, hope this helps.
