[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 477511, member: 250"] If you find an electrician that says they will... I would make sure you don't employ them! As that would appear to be a plastic enclosure, which hasn't complied with wiring regulations since Jan 16... Ref wiring reg 421.1.201 requiring Non-combustible enclosure in domestic dwelling... So you'd be unlikely to get a valid electrical certificate OR a building reg's compliance certificate for the work.. Which you will be needing if you want to sell the property without someone knocking a few grand off the price for electrical work... Plus you will need to get RCD protection, that your Wickes board doesn't have. Guinness [/QUOTE]
