I recently visited a new customers house and was giving the electrics the once over. The consumer unit was mounted on the wall vertically (top pointing East-bottom pointing West) as opposed to horizontally, is this good practice & would it affect the safe operation of MCB, RCD, RCBO and the like?

On the bright side you could probably suffer multiple rcd failures before your house has no rcd protection
