I work for a company installing boilers. As a qualified electrician for the company my main work is adding onto an existing circuit and putting FCU next to the boiler.
Am i right in thinking that as of 1st July when the 17th edition comes into force, I will need to ensure RCD protection of the addition to the circuit?
And would the use of a RCD FCU be acceptable? Bearing in mind some of the boilers we fit are in bathroom airing cupboards and kitchens?
Any help would be gratefully recieved as i have been getting conflicting answers off fellow sparks at work.
