From a house ring main can an external rcd socket be used as a fused spur to a small consumer unit in a garage less than 10m away using 2.5 buried protected cable?  (2 LED strip lights and 4 double sockets in the garage)

    You are quite right it is in theory an extension lead and it would fit a plug as i tried a connection test when i laid the cable in Entelle plastic ducting. I just want as much earthing protection as possible hence the consumer unit in the garage and an  rcd in the external sockets.
