Wylex dual tarrif CU availabilty.

mapj1
As I do not really do much domestic nowadays, I am after a bit of a steer from those that do.

I need to organise a neat arrangement in a flat with not much wall space and economy 7  (and 2 supply sub mains  in T and E that look like they have been pulled in by a crocodile using its teeth but that is something else. I feel can some hefty SWA and an adaptable box where the flat meets the common area coming on.)


Wylex claim to do a dual tariff consumer unit, that looks in the pix very like their current single phase one but with two main switches.

Given the dual supply option seems rare as hen's teeth, and the single phase and dual RCD ones are ex stock in every distributer nearby - has anyone fitted one ?,

and if so, is it the same internals , or is there more to it?

I am happy to buy a spare bus bar and an additional main switch (it will be 100% DP RCBO), but do not wish to be suddenly snookered for the want of an additional neutral block or something equally basic.

Also, has anyone ever sunk one into the masonary ?

    Apart from the bad dentistry on the LH bus bar, that sort of thing is pretty much exactly what I was thinking of. Hopefully a bit less ram jam - how many

    socket circuits and what are the rest  cooker, shower, ring,  water heater dunno, dunno, lights. and then 2 storage heaters and a storage supply for water ?


    However I'm drawn to the Wylex neutral breaking RCBOS, for the compact size and neutral breaking, I think crabtree are similar, but not Hagar as far as I know ?

    it is our place so no chint or other super cheap...  double pole bus bar is neater. Shame I have not heard of anyone using them


    Those in that pic look like MEM's floppy plastic phase, I hope not.
