RCD on commercial lighting

[Sparky john]

What does the 18th say about RCD on commercial lighting

 

[westward10]

Nothing although installation methods and ADS may require it.

Thought all lighting had to have RCD protection now

Only in domestic dwellings.

Only in domestic dwellings.

Can’t find any reference in the 18th to separate commercial from domestic on lighting

Have a look at 411.3.4 in the book

Why do you think that? Can you support this with a regulation?

Probably not if its not a regulation, thats why I said I thought they all had to be RCD'd and not it was a fact.

Has that changed from any of the previous books, I'm sure I read a regulation somewhere that simply said all lighting has to be RCD'd now. Having said that I was absolutely sure that a socket couldn't go within 3M of a bath and even every google result says the same yet it's now 2.5M in the latest book. They do like to fiddle about.

Have to justify the cost of new books
