double rcd

[southside elect]

got a split board in a house, going to put a sub board in the attic to supply sockets and lights, do i need an rcd on the sub board.? the main cable going to the attic will be 10mm on a 50A mcb with rcd main switch.

How are you running the cable?

 

[markc123]

No, you don't.

 

[onions1066]

No, you don't.

If the cable is flushed in upto the loft I would disagree

 

[simpson93]

nop. its protected

 

[tazz]

Why would you protect and RCD with another RCD...?

 

[onions1066]

nop. its protected

So your saying if its flushed in its a no? Below 50mm.
