    Adapting CU for dual tariff, am i missing anything

    Thanks SparkyChick I've actually just had to take cover off my own CU to check how would all be linked together. Does look like 3 bars would do job but your right 4th would be better. Call me a numbnut but how do you actually go about fitting a 4th bar? Cheers

    Circuit design for this water heater?

    Thanks guy really appreciated. Am going to go with the Horstmann. The cable is chased in so no issues there so will go with 16 amp MCB with 2.5.

    Circuit design for this water heater?

    Thank you all. All really helpful. There's still things I'm encountering that not got great deal of experience with so always think it's best to check things out. Turns out the previous spark has made bit of balls up and has already been wired off a new ring. I had checked some things out...

    Conversion to TNCS within property. A concern? And EICR code?

    Why if it's been converted in the mains room would it need to be converted again in the flats?

    Conversion to TNCS within property. A concern? And EICR code?

    It was yes metal clad dual RCD. No company name on it and cpcs terminated via the sleeving so practically no copper making connection. Doubt highly done by registered spark. Think the supply set up has been like that for a while though
