the first CU or do I have to take it to the earth rod?

Generally the earth rod 6491X would be taken to your own MET, Main
Earthing Terminal. These are range from a simple nickel plated brass
block with screws (£2-4 off Ebay) to fancy brass type mounted on
Phenolic (£20). Basically if the DNO does not provide you with an
earth (TN-S or TN-C-S/PME) then you provide one yourself AND maintain
it yourself.



Like this one?

8 WAY EARTH / NEUTRAL METAL CONNECTOR / TERMINAL BLOCK

Yes, but should be significantly cheaper than that.
