I've noticed in meter cupboards that CUs, meters, isolators etc are mounted vertically. Is that done by regulation or convention?
One cupboard I saw recently had the supply coming in the top forming a J to reach the bottom of a DP isolator, then an S to a meter then another S to the CU. It looked pretty, but I though "what a waste of copper. Could have saved a few feet if the isolator was mounted the other way up".
