come back mk. your MCBs may be skewed, but this takes the proverbial

[telectrix]

had the misfortune to install this today. came with isolator and RCDs. no MCBs .

as you can see, the guts are way out. caused by din rail being badly fixed. close on the left but 1/4" out at the right. all been wired up and fired up, so had to loose the din rail just to get cover on. got another visit for finishing off downlights, so will need to re-drill din rail and fix in alignment. what the buggers had done to get the lid on was to shove the RCDs and isolator to the left side. and the 6 LEDs that come on when you open the lid were no help at all . couples with needing a 3rd hand to hold the lid open whilst juggling the guts into position,

I thought you liked them Chint boards @telectrix ?

 

[telectrix]

chint aren't too bad. plenty of room above the breakers, due to the solid internal tails not flopping about everywhere. still prefer BGand starbreaker though.

The CPN board above is exactly the same as Chint isn't?

 

[telectrix]

no. the breakers etc are same, but the casing and internal tails aren't. the CPN has floppy soft tails.

This is how I feel about every single MCG board I've fitted in my life they are made for ruining days

What was it like this when you opened the box Tel ex mcb's with a gap around ?.

 

[Dave OCD]

Quite right neither does letting poorly trained people install it help.

That's a bit harsh saying Tel's poorly trained Pete.

I have already apologized for my error so leave it.

 

[Dave OCD]

Sorry Pete,that was a joke,you must have realised that ?

Yes I do tend to jump the gun don't I sorry Mate

 

[Dave OCD]

No problem Pete, we can all jump the gun at times.

Need more boards like the old Federal ones, those ----ers didn't budge once they were clipped in.

The left side rcbos have rendered the left side earth bar all but inaccessible.

Inaccessible earth bar? You were lucky. Need to remove a neutral to test insulation resistance on a circuit? No chance!

why on earth don't they make them 2" bigger all round. then space would not be an issue?

Strangely my wife agreed with your 2" bigger comment...yet she knows nothing about electrics..... !!
