6 Way Consumer Unit 63 Amp RCD and 6x MCB Circuit Breakers 6A 16A 32A Type B IP65 Weatherproof Outdoor Outbuilding Garage Shed

Amazing good bit of kit but had to return

Fantastic to use and so easy to install. I don’t think I found anything to say this is a bad product. Don’t take my word for it buy one!

This looks good, and is well put together. There were some problems I had with it though: - the door supposedly comes off for working with it, but is REALLY difficult to remove, so it may be best not to try to remove it, but that makes it a bit harder to work with. - there are no cable entry holes drilled. I knew this before purchasing, but it is actually quite hard to find space to drill enough cable entry holes if using cable glands, as the structure of the box gets in the way. I managed in the end, because we weren't using all 6 ways so only needed to drill 5 holes, but if we were using all 6 (plus the supply cable), it would have been tricky. I did change some of the MCBs, as, this sort of consumer unit is suitable for outbuildings/garages, etc, which is where we're using it, and having 2 x 32A MCBs there is a bit overkill. So I removed the 32A MCBs are replaced them with a 6A and a 16A MCB, which felt more appropriate (our main feed to the consumer unit is only 20A, so a 32A MCB from it would never trip). I feel that given that is the most likely use, having either no 32A MCBs or only one would be more appropriate.

Could do with a little more room inside but overall a very good product.

A1 for the price would recommend

Feels quite robust and decent quality. Just a bit of a design fault - The hinged door makes it very difficult to access the two left hand screws. There just needs to be a couple of recesses so a screwdriver can get at the screws better (zoom in to the pic and you'll see what I mean) Also it's supposed to be IP65 so would expect there to be 4 rubber covers for the 4 screws!!

Very easy to fix

Excellent value for money and really well put together.
