Okay first things first...I have not attempted this yet but I would like some advice.
My consumer unit is crap,small and overloaded with untidy wiring.
I want to move my consumer unit just a lil furtur away where there is more room and I can fit a modern split load rcd unit but.........
The current wiring in my consumer unit is very short and none of my current connections,ring main,cooker,shower,lights etc....will stretch to fit to my new consumer unit position.
Other than rewiring how can I safely join the cables or am i not allowed to do this?
I have seen but not used these modern looking push fit connectors etc....
Yes I am inexperienced and all consumer units I have installed have been on brand new wiring installations in the college workshop.
Any advice is much appreciated...I have asked my tutor several times but they just wiggle out of the conversation...Probably to stop me attempting this myself lol
