[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 16560, member: 250"] Well I wouldn't... Makes later testing a right sod cuz you will have loads of RCD's hidden all around your jobs! :( Go & by-pass all your RCDs to Ins Res the circuit!!! no thanks:( :_| erm nope.. not if the CU is fine.. I would think the logical place is to pop your little standalone RCD next to the CU then if it wont fit inside?? rather than in the lounge or bedroom or hall or conservatory etc.. etc.. Easier to find & isolate for testing.! :) ;) :) Ultimately if it were a rewire it would be ALL RCD or RCBO protected... and that IS the trend we will be working toward.. even Mr "none-expert-Apache" (by his own admission not meant as a derogatory statement) has sussed this basic principal out!! oh yes.. yes... yes! RCD will do nicely :) :) ;) [/QUOTE]
