Consumer Unit Stacking Kits

[Click4]

Might phone up Hager and ask them about mounting vertical, not really my preference though lol

but looked into it and their 3 phase RCBOs are a different part number to the single phase RCBO. MCBs are the same part number though

Otherwise think only other option would be to go for complete RCBO install.

Was thinking about it and if I use a stacker kit, by the time I put 150mm away from the gas pipes and meter... and have the height of 2x consumer units stacked, it will put it over 1200mm high which will contrevene part M building regs then.

So it pretty much only really leaves a full RCBO installation. Will look into EATON consumer unit, was going to try a Hager, not used one before, but dont know how much room they have when used with full RCBOs

I presume you mean their SP RCBOs for 3-phase boards - a "3-phase RCBO" will obviously be a totally different (3 or 4 pole) animal from a single phase one.

I have to say that, personally speaking, I would probably regard that at the least of my worries. In any event, is Part M compliance actually required for the work you will be doing?
