There is no such thing as "MCBOs".Hi all
I've two consumer units, crabtrees circa 1990s with MCBOs, one CU for lights and the second for sockets. The only RCDs (RCBO?) are one for garage, and the other for a shower. Am looking at having an induction hob fitted, so adding extra 6mm cable/circuit, so electrician is involved already.
Total mcbo/rcbo in use is 19, but a new one will need to be added, with a separate CU for RCD for the new circuit according to the electrician.
I'm thinking of biting the bullet and getting them upgraded.
Been quoted £1.3k by the electrician, whom I've used before.
It's a lot of money but in theory would make the installation safer is that right? Any other benefits?
What should I be looking for in terms of questions. The quote doesn't include what manufacturer for example and I'd want a quality brand. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks

Quite so - although, as below, only (hopefully) in relation to a pretty small proportion of electricians.I'm gobsmacked how uneducated these sparks are.
Quite possibly people who themselves were 'taught' in the same way - i.e. a self-perpetuating problem (and the electrical trade by no means has a monopoly on this problem).Who is teaching these kids this absolute tripe?
Apprentice teens, who have their earphones shoehorned in their ears for the whole day end up being uneducated while obtaining a qualification.I'm gobsmacked how uneducated these sparks are.
