Thanks. Yeah the bit I was a little confused about was
the wiring/circuit side. It sounds like the best way
is get a din rail enclosure then run circuit from MCB
in consumer unit to enclosure. I guess I then have to
watch the load in the enclosure relevant to the MCB
fuse size?

consumer unit which houses
all my x10 din modules

is that what your after?
