Connecting Multiple Bemco/Ryefield Boards

GHEC
Ok I have a new build project where one Bemco/Ryefield board is not large enough to cover all apartments. 


I will need to install 3 to cover the number of outgoing ways required.


My questions is this. Given that there is one incoming bulk supply, what options are there to split it between the three? I know Lucy do an MSDB with a vertical busbar. Would the DNO accept daisy chaining these together? Or should we use a busbar chamber and tap-off to each board?


Any advice would be gratefully received.

    Hi everyone


    thank you for your answers. All very much appreciated. I think first and foremost, I will need to speak to the DNO in order to get their opinion. 


    To shed a bit more light on the project, this is a little different to most. There are only 35 flats, but they will be all electric in terms of cooking and heating. To add a twist, they are all being fitted with 24kW 3-phase electric water heaters.


    As a result, we need to take a 3phase supply to each flat! I know this is all against the norm, but this is an experimental "flagship" affair.
