It used to be that you had to have the sockets on an RCD and the lights not on an RCD (it being assumed that almost nobody is electrocuted by a light fitting, but falling down the stairs in the dark when the washing machine needs new brushes is a problem) Now the regs say that there should be two RCDs with the lights and sockets split between them.
