Is the CU in the house split load? If yes is it not possible to rearrange circuits so that the garage circuit comes off before the 2 rcd sections and so is not rcd protected. If the wiring to the garage is surface mounted am i right in thinking it does not have to be rcd protected - then you can have just one rcd at your garage . Feel free to shoot me down - i am just a beginner:p

Edit : oops hadn't seen there was a page 2 so didn't realise when i posted this that old dog had already suggested almost the exact same thing and thread had moved on- sorry!

It sounds like it is an existing split load board with main switch and one RCD.

And yes, provided the cable is surface mounted then it doesnt not need RCD protection.
