[QUOTE="Revved Up Sparky, post: 72216, member: 5050"] Whenever possible I think it's also good practice to leave a few spare ways when you've changed a CU (for future additions). So for an installation with 11 circuits I would probably get a new CU big enough to leave at least 3 spare ways. When a B6 trips for me I usually get a temporary link with a connector block on the end and connect that 6A circuit to one of the higher rated MCB's just to get the Zs. [/QUOTE]
