2. essentially means places where ordinary persons, children and the disabled are not likely to be such as your boiler room.
The long and short of this is you are trying to justify not providing additional RCD protection because the client does not want the expense. One thing I certainly would not be doing is justifying a risk assessment, the basis of which would essentially be cost for omitting additional protection.

Yeah true. All this effort to try to justify not using an RCD when I could've just included an RCD from the start. 🤣
