I was quoting a job not related to this question (im not a sparks)
And was asked about a consumer unit (replacing)
What consumer unit would be the best option not the make but
Standard unit with main switch
Standard unit with rcd
Slit load with main switch lights etc and rcd sockets/cooker etc
Split load with time delay rcd as main switch and rcd for sockets/cooker
I prefer the split load with main switch and rcd as at least if it trips in the night all the lights don’t go out
Is it now a regulation to have everything rcd protected ?
