Hello,
Hope someone knowledgeable can assist
I have a garden studio connected to my house CU via an 20A RCBO, my house CU is all RCBOs.
In the garden studio I have another CU which has a single RCD and a couple of MCBs for light and sockets.
I want to place Solar panels on the studio roof and have a grid tied inverter connected via the studio CU - would it be OK to have the studio CU changed to a split load with 2 RCDs, and one RCD with it's MCB dedicated to the inverter - would that be a safe install with regards to not using a shared RCD (just wondered whether the RCBO in my house CU affects anything) ?
Obviously I will employ an electrician to do the work.
Thanks!
