Hello!
Im currently at college 1 day a week learning a level 2 2330. I want to practice some circuits at home so i have got some plywood and sockets,switches etc and some t&e 1.0 and 2.5mm.
Im looking to get this consumer unit to use (only want a small one as only going to do 1 circuit or 2 at the most. http://www.screwfix.com/prods/54580...Way-Fully-Insulated-Main-Switch-Consumer-Unit
Will this be ok?
Im also going to get a 6A, 32A MCB for lighting and ring/radials.
My last question is this: The consumer unit comes with a 100A DP main switch. I presume i need to get a RCD to install in the Consumer unit and possibly a rcd adaptor that plugs into the wall for double protection? (Im connecting the Consumer Unit by flex and plug just to see if a bulb lights up etc.
Has anyone got any diagrams how RCDs and main switches are wired up in a consumer unit? That would really help! Thanks!
