It's factual "hearsay" .....
As has been said above, the real problem is the cabling not the CU - it looks like VIR cable (google it) and will crumble and short out if you look at it the wrong way. I wouldn't want it in my house!
No.can this be upgraded without rewiring the whole house.
Do you mean 'the meter', or do you perhaps mean the fuse box/consumer unit? Electricians cannot change meters.Think im going to get him to cone back next year and change the meter ...

I don't really understand what that means. It either trips at 30mA residual current or it doesn't (and I imagine that the Standard requires that it does!) - and, if it does, it would be as good for 'additional protection' (as well as fault protection) as would be any other 30mA RCD, wouldn't it?BS7288 is mentioned in OSG, so an error in the regs perhaps? or it's only suitable for fault protection, not additional protection, which seems rather unlikely
Who knows, but I can't see why that should apply to an RCD device to BS 7288 any more than to any other RCD, can you?Not that I want to get involved - but the only thing I can think of is that this would only provide protection downstream of a potentially non-compliant part of a circuit, and the writers didn't want to get involved in the complications of explaining this.
