hi all,
here's another one i saw today which i wondered about. my mate was proudly showing me his new bathroom and i thought i'd have a nose at the electrical arrangements.
he too has another old 1361 fuse box, with a new 13A 30mA RCD FCU installed on the wall above said fuse box providing the whole lighting circuit of upstairs (of which the bathroom is part) with RCD protection. the RCD FCU is downstream (by about 6 inches) from the 6A rewirable.
now i thought (yet again, please excuse my learning status) that this would be a questionable appliciation of diversity, but looking over the forum i have found threads where folks have done a similar thing but put the RCD FCU just outside the bathroom door.
aren't these two situations the same? and are they acceptable from the diversity point of view?
yet again, many thanks.
