MG4 granny charger

[Mennox]

An electrician is going to install a double socket with RCD at the front of the house next week....I'm about to order a 15m granny extension from tough leads, so is it worth also getting the in-line RCD on this aswell or should the extension without RCD be fine considering the socket will have it?

The advice they have on the Tough Leads website for the extension lead is that if the socket isn't RCD protected already, to select one of the RCD options for the lead (inline, or plug RCD)

Thank you - I spoke to the electician earlier today so it will be installed with RCD so will just go for the extension cable without.

Just out of curiosity. If you're having an electrician to install a double socket etc. why not have a wall charger fitted instead?

I dont have a driveway installed so car is on the road outside....I do have an option to put in a driveway at some point but not one that is planned for the next couple of years
