Could you mount it behind the box, so it is accessible from the side, but recessed for protection?
Another little fabrication job - keep the thread going for another few days....

Russ thanks for that idea, it’s certainly one to chew on.
Sorry to disappoint, but there’s little prospect of this thread fading out for a while yet (unless I do!) as there’s loads to do still :clap:
modeng200023:
Andrew, I'm wondering what you do in your spare time :clap:
awemawson:
Well actually NOT much spare time today as we had guests, all very nice but you trip over them !
I did at least get a bit of time to turn the 'Meter Panel' into a pre-wired module awaiting fitting
awemawson:
Still awaiting for bits to arrive, but I did manage to move the main Neutral connection to allow me room to mount the modified consumer unit that I'm using as protection for the controller and meters. At least now there is 30 mA protection for user facing controls whereas previously as built by Puma there was none.
I think I've solved the output socket location issue. So far I've been working with the door removed, and it didn't dawn on me that the door is not full width, there is a panel on the right of the door about 8 or 9 inches wide that is still exposed when the door is shut. Ideal place for a socket, but I realised really you want an isolator as disconnecting 125 amp connections without switching the load off makes BIG flashes ! But the main isolator is inside the door :bang:
. . . never mind, looking at my stash of 125 amp plugs and sockets I discovered a humongous switched interlocked 125 amp unit that will just squeeze onto that panel !
