And make sure that ALL the mains in the house is RCD protected!...

With lots of exceptions, of course!

When you do get a shock, would you really want the lights to go out? Far

electrocuted.

Well I must admit for a few seconds I really thought my light was going to

RCD or no RCD there is no safety better than hearing the satisfying clunk
when throwing the main circuit breaker.
