RCD socket outlet.

Former Community Member

Hi all,
Any comments on this one most welcome!
A customer wants me to replace an existing one gang 13 amp socket outlet with a double.
The problem is that there's no rcd protection there, so i'm thinking that as I am in effect adding a socket outlet I should fit an rcd protected one?
If I were replacing like for like it wouldn't bother me at all but the fact it's going to be a double makes me think an rcd protected one is the thing to do, just seems a bit ott to fit one rcd protected socket when there are probably 20 others that aren't rcd'd!

    So moving on I have actually bought a supply of Europa double pole RCBOs  and enclosures, now explain me how one of those inserted into an existing circuit affords a better level of additional protection than a DP SRCD?
