If I remember, as i'm doing this at the moment.

the AD10 is equivalent of 2 mcb's in width
the LD10 is equivalent of 3 mcb's in width.

As others have pointed out, it is worthwhile leaving a spacer gap
between two modules together as in :

space - module - module - space.

This is becuase the LD10 can get quite hot and if it cannot vent it
tends to stop working.
I've not had one fail on me yet, but I do know they do get warm when
dimming.

I actually use 20way flushmount metal MK consumer units.
I have 4 in node 0, plan that they will cover the main house as it is
at the moment. If I do add an extension, then i'll add others then. I
have created the node 0 design so that either 2 or 4 more units can
go in.

Regards
Geraint.
