Hi all,
This is my first post.
I am looking to replace my consumer unit. I need it moving anyway as I am moving a wall in my cupboard to make my bathroom larger so I might as well upgrade to a good one, the one that is installed is one from Wickes.
I would like to know which are the best makes? I know of MK and Crabtree but are there any others you guys have used that you are impressed with? I would like something well made and safe. I don't
Also, I would like to include as much protection as I can and have an RCD on all circuits. Is this overkill or good planning? I would also like to increase the number of circuits to include circuits to feed my shed and a porch I am planning on adding.
I know this is part P so I need to report it first, with plans, to building control which I will do, just getting my plans straight before I do it.
I am an electronics engineer by training so I am OK handling electrical circuits/wiring etc.
thanks in advance for any advice as to what to get.
