I will be having two (inline) extractor fans in the bathroom (actually positioned in the loft) , one for the shower and one for the rest of the bathroom. The power consumption for them will be 28 and 38 watts respectively.
The shower fan will also come on with its own Zone 1 light (50w). The bathroom fan will also come on with Zone 2 bathroom lights (Max 300w) but each fan will have their own isolation switch.
I seem to think that I have read that these circuits should be protected by RCD. The slight problem being that the present bathroom light circuit is on the non RCD side of the CPU. Connecting to the CPU would not be favourable due to logistics.
I do have a ring main in the loft that could easily be connected to. Would it be feasible to install two RCD FCU's for each fan circuit or even have just one for both fans and lights?
Or is there another way (that does not involve routing cable all the way to the CPU)?
Thank you
