ah, can see the way you are going, you mean a switched fuse 'flex' outlet, rather than a s/o?
bit of a faff just to avoid RCD's! But of course, thats assuming the RCD was being provided for supplemetanry protection because the circuit failed to achieve its disconnection time, which just changing it to 5s is a bit of a kop out......
'course under the 17th this wouldnt apply anyway, because now its down to CPD size not circuit supplied (submains excluded!)
doing it under 16th it doesnt need an RCD, and under the 17th the sockets wouldnt need RCD if they are labelled 'lottery machines only' (although the cables supplying still might)
Its a fecking minefield out there so it is Shakey
