A recent consumer unit.

Very tidy. First class job.

Some minor points (I'd be failing if I didn't think of something):
Lump of crud sitting on top of main switch.
Slight tilt on breakers, particularly towards the RH end.
No space for additional circuits.

Yep well spotted, i assure you it's not there now lol.

I just get given the materials to do the job. I hate MK boards personally.

Tidy job. Hate it when the MCBs are slightly twisted from heaving up on the bus bar.

No matter how hard you try you can't help the tilt with the mcb's on these boards when getting a good purchase on the busbar.....the boards are a pile of turd IMHO. Pukka job though, nice and neat with no exposed conductors.

Looking good, (except for the stat cabling), what is the back box to the left?
A neat installation.

Consumer unit upgrade I did sub contracting recently. Materials were provided. Took me an hour to straighten my back out after that one. The cupboard was an awkward squeeze to say the least with gas pipes in the way as well.

Excelent job looks really neat and tidy the worst cables are the factory fitted ones! a work of art seems a shame to put the cover on.

Lagentium · Apr 1, 2016

It's the dis board changes that I struggle with most to get neat, the cables are never always long enough! Some properly neat work on here lads, it nice to see people taking pride in their work!
