Split board with only one RCD?

 

[MarkieSparkie]

Picture says price of kit is £175, text says kit is £210 + £18, or £32, or £40 p&p depending on postcode.
6 way split load board, only 3 ways RCD protected, so additional RCBOs (not supplied) may be required to complete a typical installation.
Dual split load (high integrity if required) board would be most Sparks choice, and preferable with some spare ways for future additions.

More proof for the "it's only a few wires" brigade, just what we need. I particularly liked the cable bit, x mtrs 2.5mm..... socket cable
x mtrs 1 mm ...lighting cable. Gadgie may as well have said all the sparkys are rip off merchants. I suppose there'll be a list of caveats as long as your arm drawn up by a suit to cover their bottoms though

Even a "small house" will probably have a cooker and a shower - looks like you get MCBs for them, but you only get 2.5mm2 cable to connect them up.

Markie got the obvious one. Wonder how many of the buyers have had to bite the bullet and end up paying someone to do the work?

At a pinch of the original £175 it may have done for van stock but seem to be getting some good stuff at the car boot recently.

It's a 16th board mate, just gathering dust on a shelf. They may as well get something for it, only problem is some muppet will buy it and install it somewhere
