... but it turns out that the whole thing is protected by a 20 amp MCB
in the garage so that 30 amp one in the workshop is a red herring

Is it about now someone will start quoting the reg that forbids this set

All I'd say is, the best and safest way to go is to take a proper switched
sub main from the house and make the consumer units in the outbuildings a
separate installation in their own right. That way, anything happening in
the outbuildings will not have as big an impact on the house system.

But that's just me. :-))



HEE HEE !!!! Sorry !!! Wrong thread.
