Which Wylex CU

[Midwest]

I intend installing a Wylex CU with spd, as a secondary CU in my house. Not installed many Wylex CU’s, but see they have a couple of different designs. Want to use the smaller switched neutral RCBO’s.

Which one would you recommend?

What’s the difference between the NM & NMX, apart from the front cover?

I've fitted a few NMX boards and quite a lot of the NM boards, I prefer the latter as there's a bit more room (not that you really need it will the mini-RCBOs), but mostly because that's the style that my local wholesaler stocks. Usually NM1206FLEXS or NM906FLEXS. They're not bad boards. Irritates the hell out of me that you can't remove/add/replace an MCB/RCBO on Wylex boards without removing the busbar though, since they moved away from their "balcony" bus bar system.

Wylex have put me off with their incompatibilities tbh so I wouldn't trust them to be able to match going forward (though only maybe Hager are immune from criticism on that one)

If you haven't seen Dave Savery's latest YT, he goes through the fun he had just confirming he had the right AFDDs for his existing board, and even then they didn't fit his existing main switch.
