Im starting fresh electrical work on a new build. The mains is coming on the ground floor, from there I need to wire 3 more CU. What's the best way to go about it? So altogether there'll be a CU on each floor. Ground floor, first, second and third. 4 CU's altogether. What do you guys reckon?
 
What type of building is this, and what kind & number of circuits? House? Offices? Something else? Bit difficult to comment without more information.

Well you will need a cable pulling into each new DB won’t you. It’s hardly difficult to work that out was it if you knew what you was doing.
 
So I'm not clear what you are asking?

Re-reading the original post, it seems you've already decided there will be one CU per floor, and you want to know how to supply each CU from the intake?

Or is this still open, e.g. you could instead put everything in one plant room where the supply enters the building?
