See pics. I had a new insulated plasterboard ceiling installed in my house s few years ago and the consumer unit cover was cut to accommodate the new ceiling. You can still get to all connections when the cover is off so not to bad.
I will be getting an electrician to connect a 10sq swa cable to this consumer unit. All the cables are in place in the shed and from shed to the consumer unit.
Is there enough room on this fuse board to take another 32amp rcb or will I have to get a larger consumer unit. If not, this brings me onto my next question.
I was thinking of getting the consumer unit moved lower down the wall rather than up in the ceiling. Can this be achieved through building regs with connections to extend the cables or will I have to go ripping ceilings to bring new cable from point A to new consumer unit location.
For reference, the consumer unit will be getting moved about 1m lower than where it already is.
Pics to follow. Slow internet at the moment.
