I am about to replace my main house consumer unit after a re-wire. At present the wall the unit will goes onto is old plaster. (It is falling off and needs replacing).
My question:
Are there new regulations with how you should fit the unit to the wall?
1. Can I just screw the board to the brickwork?
2. Do I need to fit it to a backing board? If so, does it need to be fire-proof and where would I get a fire proof backing board?
Thanks
Jono.
