    Can you take 2 phases to a consumer unit?

    The board was not powered at the time the photo was taken. We took the bottom screw out, the top screws are meant to be loose, you hang the board on the two top screws, then secure it with the bottom screw.

    The 3rd phase (L1) goes to a consumer unit downstairs. I think they have balanced the load.

    Can you take 2 phases to a consumer unit?

    I don't really understand this statement. The metal box is just a metal box. The accessories inside the box ie. the switch, the RCD's and the MCB's are all marked with BS-EN numbers and breaking capacity numbers. Each accessory is only at a potential difference of 230v. I can do a PFC and PSCC...

    T There is nothing on the metal box which identifies it as being rated for anything, The switches are rated for 400v. But they are only subject to 230v each? It is a normal domestic consumer unit?

    The right switch they are using a black conductor L2, the left switch they are using a grey conductor L3. Both conductors are identified as line conductors , by brown tape?

    It is just a consumer unit. A metal box cant be rated for 400v. The switches are rated correctly for the voltage and current they are being used for. There is a 400v warning sticker on it.
