    Millions of people live in homes with a single upfront 30 mA RCD as the main switch, it’s not a big issue.

    I`m one of those a "Front Ender" of many years standing.

    When RCDs first became vogue they were fitted as consumer units with RCD Mainswitch, in their millions.

     

    Years later the split load was in - lighting on Non RCD side other stuff on RCD side. Dual boards were a log way off. and RCBOs were a big no no due to cost as well.


    It`s not that long since new CUs were all rewireables, if you had cartridge fuses you were posh.  then the MCBs came in (remember  the pop out buttons?)
