Hello, i am looking to you all for advice. I want to replace my current cu with a newer larger one. At present i have 3 separate ones 1x6 mcb's,1x2 mcb's and 1x1 mcb. This is what was fitted when i bought the place.
I am not a qualified sparks but am pretty competent with my electrical work, however i do not wish to or intend to mess with the service fuse. I have read some post's from people who are qualified and their advice is good enough for me. I have noticed a few suggestions of having an isolater fitted between the service fuse and cu, hence giving a means of cutting power to CU.
Would i be right in thinking a key electric meter is as good as . i.e if i let the meter run out of credit would this isolate the CU and allow me to change it.
Thanks in advance for your help
Cheers
