I've had a quote from an electrician to install an electricity supply to a garden room. The current CU was installed in 2020 when another electrician did a full rewire.
The first thing this electrician said when he saw the CU was, "Installed in 2020 and already outdated," and then proceeded to tell me how he will need to change the RCDs at a cost of £50 each to run the new supply to the garden room. I've attached a copy of one of the RCDs (they're both the same). Would the RCDs need changing to run 6mm armoured cable to the new garden room RCD protected CU?
