So, Do Electricians Have Top Of The Range Consumer Units And RCBO's

In their own homes I'm on about...

I imagine they test the installation a lot as well?

Cheapest BG plastic dual RCD board available from Screwfix that I put in many years back the day before my annual inspection - Still I passed, and not touched it since.

Ever seen the state of builder's houses?

Might even replace the manky plastic sockets in the kitchen with the metal clad ones I bought about 10 years ago one of these days....

Lol same here, changed my CU for my assessment last year when I was short on available jobs

axiom job from Toolstation ? does have SPD though ?

Up until Covid still had a 4 way Wylex with rewireables and a 30 amp shower unit with a cartridge fuse on a 8.4 kw shower no RCD protection at all been like it from when moved in 5 years ago.

Had a couple of spare Cartridge fuse in cupboard for when it went so all good.

Then Covid hit and decided to replace it with a Crabtree High int unit and install a EVCP at same time. 4 hrs later all done ??

I’ve got a BG split load board that was installed in 2017 before I moved in.

Some of the cables could do with a bit of a tidy up, but it’s safe and all tested out good.

The only work I’ve done on it is renewing the earthing and bonding as they weren’t secured too well.

Putting in a new board will be the last thing I do, once I’ve finished the rest of the house and there’s a fair bit to do.
