External RCD/sockets

Former Community Member

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)

    I just want as much earthing protection as possible hence the consumer unit in the garage and an  rcd in the external sockets. 

    A CU in the garage won't make a jot of difference to that.

    Is the circuit RCD protected?

    Are there any services (gas, water, oil) in the garage?
