Has anyone created an unprotected way on a consumer unit using a split load conversin kit. In effect converting a "normal" Unit to a High Integrity Unit.
And does this in any way fall foul of the 17th edition regulations.
The reason I ask is because I've been asked to install a supply to a detached garage which has a SWA cable already run.
The customer is tight with his money and wants the job as cheap but safe as possible.
The consumer unit is under the stairs and there is very limited room for a Henley block to be mounted to supply the garrage seperately.
I would intend to install a 2 way RCD protected Unit in the garage which would in turn supply 3 double sockets a lighting circuit and an electric garage door.
The consumer unit has a spare way with a 16A breaker.
I dont wish to install to the RCD protected way in the house thus eliminating unwanted tripping to the house supply.
Anybody any advice as to whether this would be a safe and more cost affective option.
Any advice grately appreciated.
