Hi
I have installed some downlighters/shower lights but these should be protected by an RCD - thing is on the Consumer Unit it does not seem to have RCD in the location I need it to be.
I have attached a pic for ease of reference.
The showerlights are on the same circuit as the rest of the upstairs lighting - which is Number 2 MCB on the pic.
Am I right in saying that the shower lights should be protected by an RCD?
If so how can I go about this on this consumer unit?
Do I take the 10amp MCB out and replace with something like an RCBO or similar?
Or do I have to swap the Min Switch (far left) for an RCD Main Switch??
Any guidance/advice would be most appreciated.
