Hi
I've just got to the end of a job in which I installed a 2way RCD protected CCU supplying 1x50a shower circuit and 1x16a radial circuit which consists of a 13a switched fused spur (outside bathroom) for a 2kw bathroom blow heater.
Typically now the job is finished the customer has decided they would like an extractor fan. Now as I wasn't originally making any alterations to the existing lighting circuit I wasn't concerned about the existing light not being rcd protected but now they want the newly requested after thought extractor fan to come on with the bathroom lights.
Would it be acceptable to do away with the existing bathroom light on the old lighting circuit and add a second 3amp fused spur (outside bathroom) on the rcd protected 16amp radial to supply a new bathroom light and extractor fan thus making all electrical alterations in the bathroom RCD protected and 17th edition compliant?
