Once you start tinkering with the CU your starting to go against manufacturers design and therefore could be going outside the scope of BS 60439 UK Annex ZA.

I'm sure though MK would do some sort of conversion kit to change there boards around, have you contacted them to ask?

Used an MK 5+5 dual RCD board today and i wouldnt reccomend them at all, very flimsy and poorly made. No wonder wholesalers are knocking them out at £55+ vat inc MCBs.

Id rather Hager, Crabtree etc...

Couldn't agree more. I had a bit of an obstacle, climbing over customers furniture to get at the board. A bit of a long story but I was setting a temporary supply for builders tools etc. when I took off the front cover, one of the "captive" screws fell out and has disappeared into a parallel universe. The case is so thin and flimsy it was very difficult to get the cover back on. Anybody know where I might get these screws?
