I have someone thinking of swapping a 3000TL out for a system that can charge batteries and island. Is there a second hand inverter market and would you buy a nearly new model? Or is there a system that can do this and is compatible with a 3000TL?

Hi all,
I need to add a second, 4 way, consumer unit at a customer's house. I have bought the unit and some 16mm tails. Would I be able to add those 16mm tails into the main switch of the primary CU or would I need to put a Henley block in the orginal tails?
Thanks very much
