Best CCU is Schneider...Oh no it isn't. Anyone tried Chintz?

[DefyG]

Yes but hoping eliminate the need for another enclosure.

Always used Schneider, however recently tried a Hager 3x6x6 split load board, fully loaded with SPD for 150+vat. Bought 4 more for stock, quality looking and quality feel

 

[ChrisElectrical88]

Also Chint, Proteus, M2, CPN.. All budget tat IMHO.

Chris electric. Which wholesaler did you get the boards from?

 

[ChrisElectrical88]

Local Independent. They are a memeber of The IBA so if you have local wholesaler who is also a member they might match the deal for you.

The Independent Buyers Association (IBA) - Nationwide UK Group of Independent Electrical Wholesalers | Map - http://theiba.net/map/

FYI Anyone, cracking bunch of wholesalers all those on that map, all help Eachother out and can compete with the big boys for price and quality.

They don't make 3 phase ammendment 3 boards

They don't make 3 phase ammendment 3 boards

Beg to differ, Schneider and Hager (Part No JK116BA3) are 2 that I've found, just wondered members had come across/used anything else

Surely a standard 3 phase board with a steel door not a glass one would be satisfactory. Only issue I see is that the doors are side hinged not top hinged, but what are you realistically supposed to do about that?!
I guess you could spring load the door somehow so it shuts by itself, sounds tedious though!

 

[DefyG]

Not sure what the difference is, maybe the housing is welded?
The door could be an issue but have come across 1ph (possibly BG) boards where the cover is hinged at the bottom (so not self closing) but still old as Amd3!
