If some of that makes little or no sense then please get some help from an electrician - saving a few pounds isn't worth someone getting hurt or killed. And yes, I know how tight funds are at some of the Scout sites and similar having worked on a couple in my younger days when I had time to spare (pre kids!).

The British regulations require an RCD or RCBO in areas where there is an increased level of risk such as circuits in a bathroom, but it there is no universal requirement for lighting circuits to be protected by an RCD.
