Hi all

I've been ask to change another dual tarriff consumer unit (17 useable ways) I've changed a few of these in past but choice does seem limited and always seem to pay over the odds for what it is. I am considering adapting a dual rcd FuseBox consumer unit. I'm just checking am I missing anything in plan for this? The FuseBox consumer units come with 3 neutral bars from what I remember so no problem there. So my theory is all I need to do is purchase another main switch and consumer unit cable kit BG Consumer Unit Cable Kit - https://electrical-showroom.co.uk/catalog/product/view/id/5501/s/bg-consumer-unit-cable-kit?gclid=Cj0KCQiAmL-ABhDFARIsAKywVadon4FzxhouM62TtMtRkwj9jG-WerEUWITZY3D1xmTN1iJ3U53trHMaAsjTEALw_wcB

And I'm good to go? Or am I missing anything? Been a long day : )
 
Thanks guys, see attached photo for actual board. SparkyChick thanks again for heads up with switching times with main switches now I think about it have heard this discussed previously. Rich thanks for advice, I have actually just got off phone with FuseBox your correct are very helpful. They confirmed there is no Delay in switching times for their main switches only RCDS and RCBOS. They have said they can manufacture one to my specifications, have had to contact Expert electrical to order this on my behalf so will have price later. Will let you know what they come back with. Cheers
