Could an unfused R.C.D. protected spur, from a complient ring final circuit, supplying a single outdoor socket via 1.5mm2 6242Y cable of max. length 300mm through a brick wall from an indoor socket outlet be considered compliant?
So, if a substantial current flowed L to E at the plugged in appliance, which would open first, the 13 Amp plug fuse or the 1.5 C.P.C., which if used as a fuse wire link is rated at about 50 Amps?
Off the top of my head, yes I'm sure a 13A fuse would fully protect a 1.5mm² c.p.c. - more than likely the 1.0mm² one in the 1.5 T&E too - but as this is an unfused spur that doesn't really help for faults before the socket.
