Hello MrShine94
From my perspective and at first glance the terminations other than the Live of the bottom 16A Rcbo ,they look very neat

Is the board spaced out from the Plyboard ? the cables seem to have been squashed between the unit and the Ply

In any event @magnoliafan89 I think you made a valid point in raising the question regards the earth etc. And I hope the reg I quoted will shed light on that question. Instead of being confused by statements of dismissal without any regs to back it up.

The reg was there in its entirety, you chose to publish part of it which inferred that the earth could Only enter collectively with other conductors which is incorrect and misleading to someone asking for advice, or am I still missing your point?

Show me that in the regs or acknowledge you was wrong it is not misleading and the part left out in no way enlarges on the part quoted which does state, not infer, the earth should go in with the live and neutral, unless you are on a different timeline to me. Me? I am not inferring anything about anyone or anything you need not only to read but get some understanding.

It’s the same reg that says collectively or separate. You intimidated it had to be collectively and that’s my point. If the op glanded earth seperately your post would have led him to believe he’d made an error.
