I've fixed the SWA - if I can find a C20 MCB to fit the garage CU that would be enough for the time being.

It is a pity about the catenary issue - if it hadn't been for taht I could have done the whole upgrade to 4mm^2 cable for about £60 and half a day's work.

:-)

PS. DZ47 format MCBs (ideally CGD) seem to be obsolescent.
Is this the animal Alan?

Nice and cheap upgrade if so!
