Just a question - not planning to do anything myself.
Does a CU require an isolator module and an RCD if all the circuits are on the RCD (ie isolator->rcd->mcbs)? The reason for doing this would be to free up extra MCB space or to allow for a pre-17th split load box to have two RCDs (one for each neutral block) without losing module space.
The only functionality that I can you losing is the ability to isolate the RCD if it failed and needed replacing. But as replacing an RCD is in the same league as fitting a CU in terms of required competency, whoever does the job would have to isolate the CU the alternative way (pulling main fuse or unscrewing load from henley block).
