[QUOTE="a1spark, post: 70326, member: 2229"] Matt. If it is a complete new circuit back to the C.U...then Yes you may be required to protect it with a 30ma rcd [Additional Protection] . If you are extending an existing circuit then you have the choice of two options as Andy has stated. If you are extending an existing circuit then a simple solution could be to install an rcd Spur unit at the point where you extend from the existing wiring run......or more simpler take the supply from a convenient socket outlet and mount the RCD Spur unit next to it . This work could be notifiable particularly if you take the supply from a kitchen circuit. a1spark [/QUOTE]
