Discuss 18th edition question in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Anyway, for discussion...there is no one right answer, and being practical people, you must know what works, and can defend your practices, regardless of any recommendations (as opposed to regulations)
You have to demonstrate that you have thought and designed...if your design is defensible, go for it. Be inventive, be creative, seek a solution that works on a particular job...don't just blindly follow some ideas someone else has promulgated. If you don't think your design will stand up to scrutiny, think again.
 
This was discussed in a previous post and I think it was @SparkyChick who came up with the great idea of doing 2 items for a quote. One with AFDDs and one without. Also stating that the regs recommend AFDDs... Then it is up to the customer which to choose.

This is precisely what my 18th Edition trainer said. Give the customer an option but ensure they have the information required to make a call.
