preferred consumer units.

There's lots on the market some great and some terrible.
Some cheap and good
Some more expensive and terrible (square D I'm looking at you)
Which is your preferred mains board?
I'm a wylex person myself.

 

[MDJ]

I like BG and Hager, the hager looks quite neat when the lid is on and fits in well in a room where it is visible I think, I don't like proteus boards myself.

 

[smu_diddly]

I usually use wylex but also hager as their rcds don't trip when doing a 2 lead zs test

 

[applemac]

wylex and bg!

 

[Jimsparky]

I like hager on a normal job and Crabtree starbreaker if price Is no object.

 

[DurhamSparky]

Schnieder or MK empty unites populated with Branded RCBO's if money is no object

or same boxes populated with ECD RCBO's and Main switch if on a budget..

if i have to fit a split RCD box now it will be Eaton, but im pushing ALL customers to the RCBO corner!

Rectangular...

 

[oldtimer]

Like Wylex as they are quite solid years ago I fitted a MK in my own house thats when I realized they were trading on their name as I found it flimsay plus you have to say when you see old DBs they are either Wylex or MEM

 

[Hawk81]

Hager for 3 phase boards, and BG for single phase

 

[sparks1973]

oh come on.....everyone knows that protius is the superior gear.....G E T n all...yum yum...

 

[Strima]

Using a lot of Hagers in work and they're slowly winning me over.

 

[pennywise]

There's a massive thread in the products and tools area of the forum. Hager for the record and merlin/Schneider for bigger stuff and Eaton/MEM

 

[SKY]

1 = Crabtree Starbreaker
2 = Hager
3 = Wylex
4 = MK

MK used to be no 1 but not anymore.
Out of the above I fit whatever the merchants have on offer.

 

[Lucas]

Hager. It's what I'm comfortable with and I can't fault them. Get what you pay for

 

[patrickzs]

yeah wylex for me 2
