Connecting Multiple Bemco/Ryefield Boards

GHEC over 6 years ago

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.

Thanks for confirming, I have seen this on a few jobs recently.

I personally have never designed them in this way, as i understand it this would mean the tenants are unable to switch meter supplier?

Ive always gone for a completely unmetered supply for tenants (via mode and bemco board) and dedicated metered supplies for landlord.
