[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 291003, member: 6969"] I "found" a link to a picture of your CU on another forum [cough] [IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img87/9335/img0002bx.jpg[/IMG] the two non RCD protected MCB's are immediately adjacent to the right hand bank of RCD protected MCB's. Simply shorten the busbar for the right hand bank of protected MCB's, and then replace the non protected busbar with a 4 way bit, and there you have it, the the right most 3 mcb's are non rcd protected. No messing about altering pre formed neutral bars or otherwise butchering it. Simple. the only issue is the non protected neutral bar is a bit short and only has 2 vacant positions, so you will have to double up the neutrals of two of your circuits. With the protected and non protected MCB's being adjacent like that, pay particular attention when you fix the labels to the front of the CU so it's completely clear which are RCD protected and which are not. It would IMO be better when selecting which MCB feeds which circuit if you can have a blank between the protected and non protected banks. [/QUOTE]
