Before we get on to an "old house" scenario, I'd like to point out I have no intention of do this myself. I like to consider myself a competent DIY'er and know when something is potentially very dangerous / illegal / beyond my skills.
Anyhow, the reason I want to replace the cu is that it is about 30 years old and as such is of the cartridge fuse type. One of the covers on the cartridges has broken, leaving the brass cartridge spurs exposed, not ideal. THe house is protected with an RCD which is obviously seperate from the CU.
My house is a fairly large 4 bed detached (I don't know how much bearing this may have) Now to the question at last
What sort of things should I be asking for / expecting to hear, obviously a new CU with MCB / RCD or RCBO? Thanks for any advice.
