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!

    I find bonding extraneous-conductive-parts and exposed-conductive-parts very satisfying in locations like bathrooms or shower rooms etc. It is a kind of passive, reliable,  bullet proof protection method, until meddled with by others such as D.I.Y.ers or plumbers. It has no moving parts, and is normally quietly active and on guard 24/7. It is to be recommended.
