    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    The CU is not wired up to anything.. there's no feed going into the garage.. I guess he thought Schneider would be a good brand.. being German.. but it appears it has an odd size orifice! Thanks for confirming......

    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    I don't need the test equipment.. I have a sparky for that.. And yes, I have adequate insurance.. PL, PI, EL, take your pick..

    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    I'm not here to go off at anyone; however it seems the default reaction by the bandwagon on here is to go apeshit at anyone who isn't a qualified sparky and try and put them down constantly. Whatever floats their boat I suppose. Seems a bit pointless having a "DIY" forum on here unless it's...

    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    Do you guys just assume everything? Do you assume that I am going to wire it up beyond the CU? Do you assume I am not going to get one of you qualified chaps to come certify it? I wouldn't assume that whoever it is you speak to is an idiot.. For what it's worth i'm an electronics engineer..  ...

    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    I'll double check the diameter, but i'm pretty sure it's 28mm. The blanking plates have just been popped out, so not butchered by a plumber :) The hole centres are only 10-20mm out, so not sure how I would do that with conduit. I was just trying to be neat rather than have conduit at odd angles.

    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    Doc H, Thanks for your advice, and the free assumptions. The CU was supplied to me in the current state, otherwise I probably would have cut the holes the right size. If this is the standard method, then that's fine, and i'll instruct my mate to get a new CU. Regards

    Consumer Units + Conduit - Need Adapter/reducer?

    Hi all, Apologies that my first post here is asking a question, but I am running out of ideas! I am fitting out a friend's garage with some sockets, lights and consumer unit. The consumer unit in question is the "Schneider Easy9 Garage Unit 2 Way" from tool station. The garage is being hooked...
