I bought it. Very nice. Now I would like to get some additional busbars that fit in it. EM doesn't seem to have all of the accessories. Don't really know where to look for them.

Also keen on getting one, what busbars get included?

 just checking your board layout again,  would you mind summarising what is happening on each row?

Sure ,TOP has large loads ( geyser , oven , garage )

MIDDLE has all other plugs and lights 

BOTTOM has 2 plug and 2 light that will run of lithium battery battery , 

All 3 rows have Earth leakage and Isolator.

Thanks, seems you don't have any changeover switches? Therefor no way to bypass inverter and switch out its loads if needed.

No I could not get at the time , I use 2 switches to do this . Orange is eskom and one to the left on all 3 rows comes from Inverter

Seem there is a bigger one as well VS418TF, but it's not available at EM.  This attached PDF outlines the accessories, but I don't see the additional busbars being listed??

I can't upload more photos.

It can be removed and moved to the top of the DB as well.

@CarlT thanks, would be nice to get two additional busbar modules for the other two rows, one if definitively not enough.

There is space for 2 of those busbar holders. But if you can find the correct busbar (with screw terminals), they can be added to that holder.

There is space for four clip in screw terminals for N and PE. 

Joburg water damaged my fibre line, so I am a bit limited in my internet at home. I'll see if I can upload some more pictures tomorrow from work.
