Default Consumer Unit for a flat with 2 feeds ?
Hi,
I have been asked to replace a fuse box with a consumer unit for a flat.
I visited the flat today and found that it has 2 Fuse Boxes and 2 electric feeds (possible on different tariffs).
Do I have to fit 2 separate consumer units ?

Unless electrons behave differently in the UK, I'm not sure you'd have much choice, unless you have the option of abandoning one of the services.

Your going to need to different boards i think anyway, unless you bought a 2 row irish board and change the main switch, but i don't no if the electric board would pass it, i'm not sure of the implications

you can buy proguard irish boards online here.
