Does a lighting circuit in single core through 20mm round conduit, need to be protected by an RCD ?

Looking for a smarter way to manage your heating this winter? We’ve been testing the new Aqara Radiator Thermostat W600 to see how quiet, accurate and easy it is to use around the home. Click here read our review.
It depends on the conduit type, how and where it is run, and where the light will be.

The OP doesn't exactly make it easy.
It's like me asking on an animal care forum what sort of food should I feed my pet?

anything that it will eat..
if it's poisonous to it you will soon know when it starts vomiting everywhere...
as for the OP, NO you don't need to RCD protect the cables in the surface conduit specifically, however if you have TT earthing then your house should already have and overall RCD..
If it's a seperate garage and you are relying on TT earthing for it then ALL of the circuits inside it will need to be RCD protected..
this is usually done by installing a "garage CU" with an RCD main switch, or a standard main switch and RCBO's..
