I've got a 4ft X 2ft (1220 X 610mm) board for my test rig, I've got the following to add to it:

  • Service Head (TNCS)
  • 100A DP Isolator
  • Single pole Henley (picked up the wrong one)
  • BG 10way board
  • Copious sockets, back boxes and ceiling roses
  • Cooker switch point
  • Fan isolator
  • Shower Isolator

I'm trying to get the DNO portion as compact as possible but I keep giving myself issues with cabling

Idea is to simulate a house but also include the the test board Layout below;

CU is the top left box

Anyone care to give me pointers?
 
I appreciate that the cables are probably being fiddled with constantly, but I would recommend getting into the routine of always dressing them neatly into the accessories with the sheaths accurately trimmed, CPCs sleeved, service loops correctly sized etc. Although you might be focused on testing, you'll build up muscle memory of the technique at the same time.
