MikeGrahamT21 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 They all need to be metal under current edition regs afaik. You'd probably be hard pressed to buy a new plastic one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Strictly speaking they all just have to be "non flamable" it's just that nobody yet has certified a plastic one as being non flamable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanP Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I am looking for a consumer unit that I will use use on the temp supply to my static whilst building and thinking it could then be used in my workshop once the main supply is moved to the house. Would a AC rcb be ok or does it need to be a different type for the temp supply? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
