Guidance Notes:
The total load must not exceed the rating of the incoming device or the assigned assembly rating (InA) whichever is the lower. Each neutral and earth connection must correspond numerically to its outgoing way. Additional blanks (ref. JK01B) are available to cover spare ways.
A pack is provided to label this consumer unit, please consult us for spares or replacements. Operating Instruction leaet is provided overleaf. This leaet should be left for the end user. Single conductors below 1.5mm² need to be doubled back in the terminal bar. Consumer Units incorporating RCDs in TT systems should incorporate an S type (time Delayed) RCCB, e.g. 100 mA s-type RCCB . Alternatively a main switch with RCBO protection on all outgoing circuits should be used. Precautions need to be taken to prevent faults to earth on the supply side of the RCD (as per BS7671 regulation 531.4.1)

Fitting Hager MCBs and RCBOs:
Only equipment and arrangements specied in Hager’s technical documentation / catalogue shall be used.
1. Isolate the electrical supply from the consumer unit.
2. Remove the front cover, by loosening the two captive screws.
3. Fully slacken the lower terminal of the device.
4. Fully open the bottom device clip (g 1.)
5. Locate the device onto the din rail, and busbar. Ensure that the busbar tooth is within the device terminal cage.
6. Close the bottom device clip.
7. While holding the device rmly onto the busbar, fully tighten the lower terminal screw.
8. After tting all outgoing devices and connecting all outgoing cables, please check the tightness of all cable connections. This should include all factory made connections, which may have loosened during installation or transit.

Cable Access:
Cable access into the metal consumer unit must maintain the integrity of the non­combustable consumer unit so far as reasonably practicable. This can generally be achieved by the installer ensuring that cable access holes they make in the enclosure do not to leave gaps greater than:
· 1.0 mm for the horizontal top surface and
· 2.5 mm for all other surfaces of the enclosure that are accessible after installation.
For rear cable access, the minimum number of knockout(s) shall be removed.
Tests on hager consumer units have indicated that there is no specic need for external re rated cable glands or intumescent sealing in addition to the guidance below, with respect to achieving a non-combustible enclosure. However this does not preclude the designer/installer from using re rated cable glands or external intumescent sealing should they consider necessary. Internal intumescent pads shall not be used.
Selection of RCDs
Different types of RCD exist, depending on their behaviour in the presence of DC components and frequencies.
Overload protection of switches and RCCBs This can be achieved by;
Method 1
Ensure the sum of the rated current of the downstream MCBs do not exceed the rated current of the switch or RCCB (Inc). This method would however need to consider the consequences of any spare ways and later additions.
Method 2
Ensure that the rated current of a switch or RCCB (Inc), stated by the assembly manufacturer, is not less than the rating of the upstream OCPD. For a domestic installation this could be a 100A cut-out fuse.
Method 3
Select a consumer unit or distribution assembly that only utilises RCBOs on outgoing circuits. Consideration will still need to be given as to the rated current of the main switch.

In principle, this means adjacent circuit-breakers having a load ‘on’ time exceeding 30 minutes or where a load not exceeding 30 minutes has an ‘off’ time less than the ‘on’ time, will need to have the rated diversity factor applied as indicated.
