Right chaps,

Due to a few unavoidable issues, we have lost the original thread and pics etc.

Sorry about that!!!

So, if you want to re-upload your pics then great, if not, give us something new!


Cheers!!

I must say I was quite surprised by this MK unit.

My customer supplied this from B&Q for £65inc vat and CB's!!!

Went away from installing them due to poor quality and everything being cheap.
That being said its the most room I've ever had I a amendment 3 unit.
Only down side is the breakers (made in China) are loose on the din rail. That can be sorted with a strip of insulation tape on the fun rail too and bottom though.... Lol

Very neat although it would appear its a high integrity board with 2 unprotected ways maked on the N bar, I take it the main switch is to be moved over and another busbar added although it won't make much difference if not but shame to waste the future option.

Yes that is a red plug Dave.. Give the apprentice one job and he messes it up lol.
I agree with you dark wood I should have.
Although this was a DB change from a main switch board in a one bed rental flat. There's no need for any future unprotected circuits.

I'd keep hold of them tbh mate for those little minor works jobs. Only been on my own about 6 years but can't move in my garage for spare breakers haha always come in handy. "Sold" a desperate customer a old Crabtree c50 3 pole for £180 last year

You could buy a amendment 3 with it all in for £65 in the big orange shed!
Makes my suppliers look like con artists!
Also made me look very silly when I priced it for Hager and it came in twice the price. Hence they supplied the board.

Doubt if you'd get a fully loaded one WITH 5 x RCBO's for that price? WF are flogging off fully loaded plastic CU's, with 10mcb's for £36. I've bought one, tempted to buy some more and then just get the enclosure, but you can't beat £65!

I find those MK mcb's are still twisting on the din rail.

Had to install this meter cupboard in a 8 hours, i moved all loads from existing cupboard(now demolished) to new cupboard 20m away and had to re connect everything. It fed a sewage station and a aquaduct so time was precious. Could have been spot on if i had more time but needs must ey.
