Consumer unit labelling

[Octopus]

I use PIRform for my certs - and this has the option to print off a circuit schedule, which I then laminate and pass to the client to keep by the CU. This includes my contact details.

Think Tel and I prefer the more technical approach to circuit labeling, on the back of one of these. They can also be used for any design calcs and of course any cartridge fuse replacements, the silver paper just about covers any load size

i prefer this brand. the foil just has that bit extra for shower fuses.

one of my aunties smoked them players weights. they killed her dead eventually at 92.

I thought these would have been a better reflection of your status in life now Tel

 

[telectrix]

nah, i was never in the navy. seen some of their floating targets, though.

I don't leave a sticker with my name and number, but I do take a black marker and write ANDY WOZ ERE on the lid and accompany it with a crude illustration of a nob and balls.

Agree with Richard in post 6

and, most importantly, you can use the proliferation of stickers to hold the lid on when the pillars the screws go in break, blank off unused ways, even try to get a tripping RCD to hold.

I use PIRform but I didn't know that! Cheers for the tip!

The UK has somehow become this great lover of ''Stickers'' when it come to electrical installations, 99.9% of them totally unwarranted and/or pointless. I've seen domestic CU's virtually completely covered in the things. Apart from circuit designation, i think i'd remove the bloody lot on any property DB/CU of mine...
