Well I genuinely thought that I may have been able to get some advice from this forum. Only to be told that this is not something I should be concerned with, and for people to make general assumptions about my qualifications and the need for the work to be notified. All of which are irrelevant to the original post and no one asked any thing about the nature of the install

You could use the search function, and find some previous threads on this subject. To my knowledge there is only one supplier of such DP RCBO's in the UK?

Have a look at this thread:
DB installed connected & tested - https://www.electriciansforums.co.uk/threads/db-installed-connected-tested.151846/page-5#post-1401387

@Midwest thank you that is the type of product that I am looking for. I did try using the search but some how missed that thread

Why do you want a S.P & switched neutral RCBO?
Hager did them but it takes up two ways in a consumer unit/D.B.

 

[loplug]

The reason for double pole devices is to provide proper discrimination of circuits. I looked at the Hagar ones but they all have the neutral leads apart from some that are described as not for use in distribution boards.

 

[Toneyz]

They all will because of the bus-bar.

I don’t think that to be true as some exceptions have already been identified

I know but not off the shelf or is this for an existing?

 

[loplug]

Just a upgrade/ rework of the circuit protection and control

 

[Midwest]

You'll need a new CU then.

The new Wylex compact RCBO, come with switched neutral.

I will but haven’t grown the courage to ask advice on enclosures yet

 

[Midwest]

Why do you have an issue with the neutral flying leads, other than them looking a bit untidy?
