New Consumer Unit in the Clouds.

Zoomup
I recently did some work in a man's garage. He had had a new consumer unit fitted about two years ago. He is not able to use steps as he is overweight and unsteady on his feet. A local N.I.C.E.I.C electrician installed the lovely new M.K. consumer unit. Unfortunately it is 10 feet above the floor and needs steps to access it. What was the contractor thinking about when he installed it?

    Well in the days when we had fuses rather than MCBs or RCDs, they never blew anyway, and literally lasted decades between being looked at. I think a lot of people have not realised this has changed, with a need to trip RCDs every 6 months or whatever.

    In the mean time, there are various things that are a bit better than steps for getting wobblier folk up into the air (examples)




    I have no connection with this outfit, other than as a customer - There is customised something from the same stable over the back door steps at my (aged) parents house to allow a safer exit routefrom the house.
