RCD on a socket outlet

[Rob69]

Hi all,

I have installed a radial A3 circuit in a back room which will be used for supply

to outside equipment eg lawn mower. The CU has a 30 ma rcd fitted covering the above circuit. Does this satisfy the regs?????? or do i need to fit an SRCD ????

Whats the best way ???

yeah you might just want to test that rcd before letting people use the socket

Why do you think the existing Consumer Unit Rcd would not satisfy the regs ?

You seriously need to cut down the phrase everything in moderation comes to mind.
