    Distribution circuits in Section 705 location, RCD needed?

    I just want to check how I should be interpreting section 705. 705.411.1 states required disconnection devices, the first two indents covering final circuits and sockets, requiring 30ma and 100ma RCD's depending on rating of socket.
