    Options for replacing this antique?

    I've not seen that kind of board before but I have replaced those type of RCDs before in the old wylex boards.

    Extension and Garage Conversion Wiring

    Part P doesn't apply in Scotland. Even so he needs to supply test certificates for any work or alterations he has done.. The poof you heard was likely a fault blowing clear which is a rough and dangerous way of working. You need to perform dead tests first before livening up the new circuits...
