Why Choose the Chint NX3-14S Dual RCD Consumer Unit?
The Chint NX3-14S is a robust 4 + 4 split load dual RCD consumer unit designed for safe and organised circuit distribution in residential, commercial and light industrial electrical installations. As part of the Chint NX3 metal consumer unit series, it provides a durable enclosure with a 100 A main switch and 2 x 63 A RCDs for split load residual current protection.
This self-assembly consumer unit is designed to give electricians flexibility when configuring outgoing circuits. The NX3-14S provides an 8 empty way split load layout, allowing compatible MCBs or other modular protective devices to be selected according to the requirements of the installation.
With a 14 module metal enclosure, dual RCD incomers and a 100 A main switch, the NX3-14S is suitable for domestic consumer unit upgrades, rewires and small commercial distribution boards. Its Amendment 3 compliant metal construction supports modern installation standards while helping keep final circuit protection tidy and accessible.

Flexible Split Load Circuit Protection
Dual RCD consumer units such as the Chint NX3-14S allow outgoing circuits to be divided across two RCD protected sections. This split load arrangement helps provide residual current protection while keeping circuit distribution organised for installation, inspection and future maintenance.
The NX3-14S is particularly useful where installers want a consumer unit supplied with the main switch and RCDs already included, while retaining the flexibility to choose outgoing protective devices separately. This makes it suitable for a wide range of domestic and light commercial electrical distribution projects.
Typical Applications
- Residential consumer unit upgrades.
- Domestic rewires and new electrical installations.
- Small commercial distribution boards.
- Split load RCD protected final circuits.
- Electrical refurbishment and board replacement work.
- DIN rail MCB configuration for tailored circuit protection.
