Morning all

Just looked at a job where the consumer unit is moving, can't move the legs without a great deal of upheaval so looking at using an enclosure to extend the legs through the wall to the new position. I would like to use an enclosure with a dinrail and dinrail connectors, there are 6 circuits so basically 6 lives, 6 neutrals and 6 earths. Tails I can reroute to new board. I haven't used this sort of setup before and just had a look on rs online. They have some suitable stuff but about a million different parts to sort through. Wondering if anyone has any favourite gear they could recommend rather than me getting a load of old rubbish and finding out the hard way. Thanks in advance
 
I tend to agree Dave

such a small job would be a 'grab what you have' kind of situation

If the OP had 30-40 circuits to extend then you would warrant a bit of searching to find the right sized product to do a pukka job

But in all honesty I just keep various small plastic boxes in my garage and would just grab one of those for 6 circuits and a hand full of wagos.

Wagos in a wiska box

Did think that but thought din rail would be a neater job.

Wagos in a din rail mount ?

I’ve tried many different makes for din rail terminals..
The only ones that I use now are the wago top jobs.
Such a huge variety to choose from and the common links are fiddle to insert.
Come in singles, doubles, trebles so very economical on space
