Are the tails definitely bare in the stud wall, or is it possible they have mechanical protection, complying with 522.6.204, (which I think would mean no RCD req'd)?
I have come across this a few years back in a new build, when putting up a cabinet in a toilet. The tails were installed in a steel stud wall, and my magnet picked up the mechanical protection. Thinking it was just another steel stud, I tried drilling it for a couple of minutes, before realising something was amiss and checked the other side of the wall to find the CU there!
