I currently have a 9 way Consumer Unit that was installed at my home in 1995 which functions with problems.
An electrician has made the comment that this unit does not meet current electrical regulations as it only has an one RCD (on the downstairs/kitchen sockets circuit. The rest are MCB's only).
The proposed work is to replace the existing unit with a 10way Split-Load, High Integrity, Dual RCD/MCB protected CU.
Is it necessary/advisable to have this work carried out?
