[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 20844, member: 250"] If its just a lighting circuit... a bog standard RCD Fused spur on a patress box would do the job... you could leave a 13a fuse in the FCU cuz the MCD / wylex wire fuse would provide the "overload protection" part of the requirement.. and the RCD FCU will provide the 30ma Shock protection! ;) :) obviously sockets would need something bigger capable of carrying 30A+ ;) [/QUOTE]
