Looking for a CU for a restricted space, but screwfix's offerings look exce ssively bulky. Needs to house 6 MCBs, split would be a plus. Already have l ots of Hager MCBs stocked, which I gather fit... I can't find my notes, tha t's a bit of a problem. IIRC they fit several brands. Contactum & MK are li sted on the wiki, but there were many more brands they fit as well.
OK, am looking for something tight on space, a bit of a c- rather than nice & spacious. And metal not plastic. Absolute max width 11.5", 11" would be better. Oh, and the world for sixpence. Any suggestions?

That was the first thing I looked at. Seller said 'Exact width 29.8 cm heig ht 24.5 and depth at deepest point i.e. Including front cover 9.8cm'. Where are you seeing one 219mm wide?

It doesn't show a picture of the unit open, so hard to be sure but I suspec t I know what the problem is. I bet it has 6 ways after the 100A switch is in, 4 of those would be taken up by 2x RCDs leaving only 2 ways for MCBs.
I looked at Hager's pdfs for metal CUs and they were remarkably unhelpful. A table of dimensions with no decipherable information as to what CU each s et applied to! Why so many sellers don't include the basic necessary inform ation I'll never know.
Unfortunately I haven't found anywhere near here that sells Hagers yet.
I think you copied the link below the full catalogue at
The weird thing is the way for Design 10 & 30 CUs they gives dimensions for the "enclosure size" (4, 5, 6 etc) leaving you to look back at earlier pages to see what that means in terms of modules (and AFAICS guess that size 2 = 4 mod and 3 = 6).
