To my absolute amazement the DB and all circuits illustrated above have I am informed been tested to 17th edition standard. How many 17th edition problems can you spot here? I am wary of just how many other issues will be discovered when I start doing a few circuit tests of my own! Though I have to trace the circuits first! Quite unbelievable sadly there are a lot of 'companies' who do such shoddy work!
 
Way 12 looks pretty safe and compliant to me and its circuit ID is bang on.
 
The thing is those boards are supplied with clip in blanks, and I'm not sure you can even get full module ones to fit.

I think the idea is that with it being an isobar board there is nothing live to be touched if a blank does fall out. Not that I agree with using those ones.

The breaker on the top left is correct for the board, it just pre-dates the recent facelift of the range, the acti9 range is backwards compatible with the multi9 range

Have you asked customer for any p/work relating to work done?
 
you need to pull the pin out above the din rail to energise it so whats the problem

So when the blanks go missing or get pushed inside as they are pants (yes they do, do din-rail ones) what IP rating are you going to give the enclosure Shanky my boy?

Be nice to see what it is like inside..as I was recommended to use this particular type of board here yesterday.

Both fitted ?
So to prevent it from ever happening you would fit the din-rail blanks that are the shape of the MCB's in the first place Yes.
