Hi all, could I have opinions on the use of rcd fused please.
Customer has old 3036 at the front of the house.
They want a couple points on there new decking for festoon type lighting switch from inside.
There is a t and e switch fed outside light already so I'm thinking of coming off this to an outside rcd fcu which can feed the first set of lights and then swa to the next standard fcu (fed from load side of the first).
The client wanted sockets instead of spurs but I have said this isn't possible without finding the ring circuit inside the house so they will have to choose non transformer lights.
This will ensure all new stuff is protected. My issue is with the rcd not being to 61008 or 61009. I'm sure I've read that this is a problem but I'm looking at the big book and can't find it
