Addition of a new circuit............

whjohnson

In the wake of the new webinar on inspection and testing, is it still compliant to add a new circuit to an existing plastic consumer unit fitted with type A/C RCD protection and nothing else?

How much 'engineering judgement' leeway do I actually have?

    One of my favourite guides is: "in a satisfactory condition for continued use".  651.1.

    Even if a consumer unit is all insulated, but is in good condition, I would add to it. People can  not afford unnecessary work and expense in many cases.

    651.2 Note 2.
