CBus wiring and consumer unit


  • Subject: CBus wiring and consumer unit
  • From: Martin Wonders <martin.wonders@xxxxxxxxx>

I'm in a position to decide whether or not I house my consumer unit next
the
CBus dimmers and relays or around 20m away.
The situation is:

Mains comes into the house at the Utility room and the Cbus installation
will be in a dedicated Node 0 upstairs at the other side of the house.
I can use armoured cable and extend the tails from the utility to Node 0
(about 20m) and house the consumer unit and cbus stuff together in Node 0,
or I can house the consumer unit in the utility room and wire to Cbus in
node 0 and then out to the lights etc (seems like long cable runs).

Can anyone suggest the best solution?

Many Thanks

Martin
