To add to the suggestions already made, I urge making the off peak consumer unit of generous size to permit of spacers between the MCBs.
MOST circuits in MOST domestic consumer are seldom heavily loaded, and then not for long and fully populated boards are usually fine.
Off peak circuits can be fully loaded for hours at a time, and the MCBs may be liable to overheating without spaces between.
