Looking at installing a simple 3kW inverter/2.4kW battery UPS system.
My DB has LOTS of room.
Now the question. Can I install the necessary switchgear in the main DB.
It will be (all AC)
- CB for feed to Inverter
- Changeover switch
- CB for feed from Inverter
- Earth Leakage (RCD) with the
- CBs for the selected circuits I want on Backup (lights and plugs) (reuse current CBs just connected to new RCD)
- Required Pilot Lights.
The DC stuff (battery cables and fuse box) will be separate.
Will this be allowed if adequately separated and so indicated in the board? Seems like such a waist to install another DB if the main one has like two rows 10 DIN spaces each.
