Dave Osborne coughed up some electrons that declared:
Is it though?
What in engineering terms is different between a sub board of one over current device, and a fused spur? One is clearly allowed to change an fuse spur device.
What about a breaker in a shed on the end of a distribution circuit from the main house CU?
How does having a mini board in the shed (sockets and lights) fed from, say a 32A circuit differ conceptually from taking a 32A circuit directly to the shed sockets, with a 5A fused spur for the lighting (a common enough arrangement)?
What about using a 3 module "CU" in the same example above, fed by a 32A circuit, with the shed sockets coming off the load side of the isolator, and a 6A MCB for the lights (we assume the 32A feed is RCD protected)?
I don't think it's actually that clear cut. The MPs would probbaly like it to be, but it isn't IMO.
