[QUOTE="binky, post: 545636, member: 490"] Your house RCD will trip first. You need to feed your garage from an MCB in the main board that isn't sharing the RCD. I am assuming your garage is fed from the main board. To do that it's easier to change the entire board, ideally to one with an rcbo per circuit, although that board may be large enough for RCBOs. You then need to replace the RCD with a main switch. The other option is a mini board, house end tapped into the meter tails after your leccy meter. That mini board will need main switch and MCB only for the garage supply. [/QUOTE]
