[QUOTE="anthb3, post: 546309, member: 37004"] Hello and thanks in advance for your time and knowledge. I wish to connect a caravan hook-up unit to a dedicated 40A supply from the mains. I could use a consumer unit with a seperate 32A socket link-up but i like the compactness of a hook-up unit with the socket and power switch built in. Thing is they are never supplied as bare units, they are fitted with an RCBO. Is it ok to swap out the RCBO for another to better suit the appliance to be powered (welder)? If so, is it required that the RCBO be manufactured by the same company making the hook-up units? I would be downsizing the RCBO from 63A to 25A type c. The work will be done by a qualified electrician but i want to buy the components then pay for labour only. [/QUOTE]
