My 1st Consumer Unit install

[Loki]

Hi all,

Just installed my first ETN consumer unit (new build house)
Quite a small unit. Took out the din rail & did earths & neutrals first then fitted rail back & did the rest.
Im pleased with it. My only niggle is no grommets came with unit & i was told to fit it as is by team leader.






Not sure why pics are are upside down?
have sent this via iphone?

By the magic that has been granted to me from the Australian Magic Circle, your pictures are now the correct way up :rofl:

Did it not come with any covers for those bare bus bar stabbings?

Or is that how CU's come now?

Looks alright to me though.

Why does my iphone upload pics upside down.

Quick question why does the main switch have 2 neutrals going to the same neutral bar?

If you split a bit of T&E straight down the middle with a knife then you can use the sheath as a grommet strip

Its more convenient to have a N in and out to the RCD on the main N bar than 2 into the Main Switch I assume.

Not bad at all for your first CU, well done. (now that the pictures are the correct way around lol).

If you look closely it looks like there is two N links entering bottom of MS as well as a small busbar with 3rd N link attached?
