Hi All,
I have an outside socket (non RCD) which is showing signs of age (the cover keeps falling off due to sun damage). I was thinking to replace it with a (32mA trip) RCD type but I find the outside socket is on the kitchen ring which is protected by a 32mA RCD trip at the consumer unit.
Do I need to / should I use a dedicated RCD outside socket?
Thanks, Chris.
