Hi
I hope this is a simple question... I've just had a new kitchen, and so had an electrician in to move a few sockets around and add a couple more.
It's all in and working, but the electrician says he can't sign it off unless he gives me an RCD protected consumer unit for another £240. He says it regulations. I'm surprised by this because my existing unit has MCBs and is fairly new.
I'm struggling to find regulations which enforce this, but I'm not familiar enough to know if I'm being taken for a ride...
Grateful as ever for advice!
Ian
