You can use a Double Pole RCD as the means of isolations for the outbuilding - pay attention to section 314 of the regs re a fault on the sockets / shower taking out the lighting circuit tho.
Yup thought about the lights on the RCD bit but decided I will be fitting everything on the RCD with a shower being in there.
With regards to not being able to see if anything happened....
He's got the usual halogen pir on the house which shines nicely through the window of his shed (Don't really know why he wants a lighting circuit thinking about it) this would nicely light up his shed CU so he could reset.
What is the likelyhood of the cables being damaged if they are not? For the sake of a few £s and doing the job properly is worth it in the long run.
Think your right, although I would be able to clip them safely out of the way I hate it when I see cable clipped somewhere.
Plus as I said before with there being animals and sharp scissors etc I'd prefer to have the extra protection.
I'll buy some for him tommorow and he can buy me a Guinness or something.
Thanks for your help Spark123 and everybody else thats helped me.
I know there must be some people reading this that are saying to them selves "if he's asking that he shouldn't be doing it" but I am capable and believe myself very competent in what I will be doing, it's the regs I am not familiar with as I work by the SUPPLY regs which seem to be very different.
I mean who'd have thought you'd need to use armoured cable
Also this will be checked and issued paperwork ONLY if all is correct by a competent practising spark of many years who doesn't live in the area and hasn't the time to come and do the work due to his own work commitments.
