Do you know number of the regsall sockets up to 32A should be RCD protected since before 18th ed. however if installed to 17th., a RA could negate the need.
411.3.3Do you know number of the regs
used to be that RCD could be omitted if under supervision of skilled or instructedmuppetspersons. since then IET have realised thatmost instructed persons are muppetsthe manufacturers' donations to the beer fund were dropping, so regs. changed.
Is this your private opinion or I can find this in regs ?If it is a workshop (not domestic) you can still have a risk-assessment to say not needed (or problematic).
Depends on the expected use really, some 3-phase outlets should have RCD protection as used outdoors and/or with tools liable to chop cables, others it is pointless as low risk and just a cost and trip-risk for high leakage things.
Hard-wiring seems the only option there, but that makes it impossible for a non-spark to swap over stuff in an emergency, etc.
