garage consumer unit

[ceejay]

Is it necessary to install a garage consumer unit with an rcd if the feed is coming from an rcd protected main board? i don't think it is but want to make sure. It will be running a small ring and a lighting circuit.

Yeah, maybe I should join a scheme. The agian being a site based contractor I probably don't do anywhere enough domestic work (if ever) to justify the membership fees.

The NIC EIC firm I work for has one guy that signs of all the test certificates as well as all ATEX installations. Surely you don't have to have done the work to inspect it?

So you're a weekend cash monkey then? No tax, no scheme??

ha, I pay plenty of tax thank you very much, what gives you the right to insinuate otherwise? Like I said, this job will be installed to the regulations, fully certified and signed off.
It's not to friendly this forum is it? I came on here to ask other qualified electricians for some advise on how to best comply with regs and how to genuinly do a job in the correct fashion and all I've had is snidey comments from the soggy biscuit club. All I want to do is make sure I comply to the rules yet all you guys want to do is critise my motives and question wheteher I pay the relevant tax. Geez, what a bunch of ****s. I can see why diy-ers and bengal lancers choose to operate like they do as no one in the trade seems to want to pass down any knowledge. I done a 4 year apprenticship like the rest of you, I have my jib card, my 17th edition cert, my nvq 3 as well as my 2391. I'm timed served, I went down all the correct avenues. I was just asking for some simple advise and a guiding hand to help me do things by the book, they only way I like to do things.
