Agreed I'm better off having RCD protection on the cable too.
Its been suggested that i could do the following:
I have a cooker point in my kitchen that backs on to the garage, and as I have a gas cooker its not in use.
Take a feed from the cooker point into the garage, connect to a 2...
Nope,
House is an 80's house, and on the original wiring, as far as i can see there's no RCD protection on the current fuse board.
Saying that, I could just use RCD'd sockets couldn't I???
Thanks for you help so far, much appreciated!!
No idea but as the cable is just tacked to the wall I can easily have a look.
I'm not planning to run lots of things all at once, so I can't imagine the load would be that great.
Would it be worth putting a new consumer unit into the garage, so i can have RCD protection on the sockets...
Hi,
I've just bought a house with a garage attached.
From what I can see the garage didn't have power when it was built, so the previous owners have taken a spur off the back of a kitchen socket and used it to run a single socket and then on to a single strip light.
I want to add...
