4 FOR 7TH EDITION COMPLIANT INSTALLATIONS Since st July 008 the 7th Edition Wiring Regulations has required the installation of Additional Protection, by means of 30mA RCDs on many circuits which previously may not have needed protection by RCDs. It is important that a single fault does not inconvenience or cause increased danger for others, e.g. lights going out if fault on a socket. Therefore, the use of more than one RCD is required. Different types and sizes of property, will require different design considerations, and different equipment can enable some circuits to be grouped together on one RCD. Whereas other circuits may require a dedicated supply, e.g. smoke alarms and warden call. British Standard and IEE Regulations are subject to change, please always refer to the latest standards for all types of electrical design and installation work. BG offers a variety of circuit protection solutions, that will help the designer and installer to comply and meet these new regulations. The following areas require additional protection by an RCD not exceeding 30mA: i) Socket Outlets (section 4.3.3) All sockets up to 0A All mobile equipment up to 3A, used outdoors Exceptions are socket outlets under supervision of someone skilled/instructing, and labelled socket, e.g. Freezer. ii) Cables buried in walls (section ) All cables concealed in a wall/partition less than 0mm depth, and without earthed mechanical protection, e.g. earthed metal conduit. iii) Location containing a bath or a shower (section ) All circuits within these locations must have additional protection by an RCD. iv) Installations to be divided (section 34) All circuits of an installation should not be connected to a single RCD. This avoids hazards and minimises inconvenience to others by reducing unwanted tripping. 80
