Placing consumer unit?

TrigPoint
Hi everyone,


Could you please advise?


I have a rewire of a refurbished house. The clients want the CU very high up on the wall but I'd prefer the guidance in Part P and M and install around 1350mm-1450mm. So the wiring is as up to date as possible. Do I have to follow rules for a new build/dwelling or as it's refurbished can the CU be installed to previous building regs?


Thanks

    As I understand it, part M only applies to new buildings and building undergoing a material alteration - so the only requirement is to ensure it's not worse than before (when measured against current building regs).
