[QUOTE="Mr Sworld, post: 8064, member: 184"] Only useful for lighting, smokes and FCU radials. I'm not too fussed about lights being on rcd/rcbo's. However I would put the lights on the floor where the CU is on an rcbo. So when the sockets on any level trip at least the lights where the CU are on a independent circuit and still lit! FCU radials; it can be handy to ignore the rcd rules when running a FCU for an immersion tank or boiler. Mind you as boilers are hidden away why not run the FCU in surface mount plastic conduit from under the floorboards? Probably the best use for it may well be smoke/heat alarms (I don't want my smokes to trip out because of a fault on another circuit) but you could run it in MICC, which for that circuit would be the best way as it is fireproof! (For a few hours anyway.) [/QUOTE]
