"So cables supported in plastic trunking or in plastic conduit will also
need additional metal clips."
How does that work with conduit?
Is that for cables that could fall across escape routes?
Most cables in vertical mini-trunking will just hang close to the wall - and
it'll take longer for the trunking to melt - that on a ceiling is in the
worst place.
As for RCD on lighting circuits: great - get a shock from a mains tool,
lights go off, fall off stepladder! Separate RCDs/RCBOs would be OK, so long
as the whole board doesn't go off.
No unprotected sockets: there goes the freezer!
