Thanks Dave,There is nothing wrong with this as the feed in to the garage is fused at 13A already.
2 RCDs in series makes it very hard for you to test the RCD tripping times when you carry out the essential tests before putting your new work in to use.
The additional MCBs won’t make any improvement as the current protection is correct, however they will have no practical negative effect on the installation.
Yes the armour should be earthed at least at one end, preferably the supply end.
No DP isolation is not normally required.
Thanks Dave,
It took a lot of work to get there so thanks for your clear definitive answer.
If others would have done this rather than go off on tangents as to why I wanted more sockets etc we would've been done a lot sooner and I wouldn't have needed to sound like a bolshy git, which I'm not unless people get up my nose.
Again thanks Dave.
Spoon, thanks.Glad you are now sorted mate.
On the flip side of the coin, if you would have just given the info at the beginning then "we would've been done a lot sooner"
succinctly put by ^^^^^ dave. no further comments required, unless they are funny.

To be fair if you read the original post again, the info is there and the questions are there.
Will have to agree to disagree.
