Hi Folks
Screwfix have Wylex combined AFDD/RCBOs for over £200 each. For a simple hypothetical installation with 2 lighting and two ring final sockets circuits, that's over £800 for devices alone.
So, if one were to install two consumer unit enclosures, one with main switch and two 40A AFDD/RCBOs, each feeding one 32A MCB for a sockets circuit and one 6A MCB for a lighting circuit, in the other enclosure, arranged so that sockets and lights in each room are on different AFDDs, one would in effect have a dual AFDD/RCD consumer unit, something that doesn't (yet?) seem to be available to buy.
Can anyone see any problems with this?
