Hager Metal Consumer Units

[uksparks]

Hi,

This morning in my local wholesalers they had a selection of the latest Hager metal consumer units that comply with amendment 3. I have to say I was quite impressed with the look of them, especially the Design 30.

How much are they UK?

Did you get any prices on them?

 

[uksparks]

Yes, the design 30 on a 5+5 was approx £120

That price does not include breakers, you really need to see one to appreciate how good it is, I stood there for 40 mins looking at it, it's actually looks good, is nice and solid, clamps to hold tails, knockouts, plenty of pace for rcbos etc, lockable option on lid.

I might pop back in there in the morning so will take some photos of it for you to see if I do.

 

[ruston]

Thanks.

Thanks for that UK, I will have need for one in a week or two. It's a tidy up in a domestic garage and I haven't the heart to put a plastic one in that will ..................

Not forgetting the "REDS & BROWNS GO ERE!!", "BLACKS & BLUES GO ERE!!" Stickers

All terminals will be Wago type connectors inc the tails for 5WWs ...LOL...

Also a caution notice ;


Installed by Electrical Trainee, check house insurance policy ...

 

[uksparks]

A big yellow one yes!

I think the only thing is the price as I can buy a plastic hager equivalent for £32 plus the breakers, so you are £90 more already, so I think I'll have to offer people both from now on and explain it all, but as of next year then the prices will need to go up a bit, possibly take a small hit on the profit to help make it still happily affordable to all though.

I understand that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit ... not every Electrical Trainee needs a 'packet may contain nuts' warning on the side of their salty snack!

Stuff that, do you think heating engineers would take a hit if they had to install a more expensive boiler forced upon them by regulations.
