Rcbo neutral cables, cut to length

Baldyhugh

Hi 

Just a quick question. What is the preferred option when fitting rcbo’s with the long supply neutral cable pre wired into them, do you cut them to desired length and ferrule them or leave them as is and try to coil the excess cable up in the consumer unit?

Thanks

    Probably should check what the manufacturer's instructions say, but my preference is to cut & bootlace ferrule.

    UK CUs are a rat's nest at the best of times without introducing unnecessary clutter, not to mention possible thermal issues (extra heat generation, less room for convection for heat dissipation).
