Do metal consumer units have to be replaced with pvc rcd boards within landlord tennincies or can an rcd just be fitted to save on cost

I dont actually mean using a new metal cu im talking about the old wylex cu for eg there are a lot of exposed conductive parts which are not very safe, some of them have re wireable fuses which the consumer could use wrong size fuse wire which takes longer to blow under fault conditions, wen doing work in the cu the busbar is live which is accessable when taking the cover off which is dangerous (i no in an idea world we should isolate the full board but this is not always the case)
Me too but a could of sworn i heard it mentioned that if landlords rent there properties the board had to be pvc with split rcd protection thats why the councils have upgraded everyone i may be wrong though
i know that metal cu arnt allowed
