its a heater... the fire is an added benefit

you'd be best finding an electrician to do the job

i knew i was doing something wrong

does this count?

for Line 3 of a 3 phase circuit yes, but this isn't L3 of a 3 phase circuit line of a single phase circuit is brown now if it was the negative of a DC power circuit... but its not going to be that

I've stopped using them a while back. too many failures. some of them within a few month

varies a lot round here. some estates low 230's. adjacent can be high 240's. completely random

plenty places here where voltage is 230v

sounds more like you've wired them in series instead of parallel...

add to that are there some lights that looks brand new and just installed, complete with all red into one terminal & all black into another, despite never been touched by them and have always worked until yesterday?

the ones that are hidden and you don't know they are there

sounds like a big enough place that no matter what you generate, it will be used. so rather than focusing only on the pumps & trying to charge batteries to run them when there is no sun, just fit the most PV you can that'll supply everything. if it gets to the point you are generating more solar...

does the cable supplying each property come directly from the street to each individual flat or does it go to a cupboard and then to each flat?

whatever protects the circuit is what's noted on circuit details. put in the notes box that sockets are RCD sockets

most likely you've got a fault that was always there before the board was changed, however the old one couldn't detect that fault so was never an issue previously. this is a very common problem. which is why most decent electricians will do a full test of the wiring before changing the board and...
