I don't recall having those CUs open (at least not the plastic version),
how much height is there available inside?



Bugger all.

Now if the OP was considering a DIY CU swap then why not do it now?

Metal clad dual RCD (or RCBOs if funds allow).

A new kitchen is looking like 8k (units, couple of appliances, plastering, lighting and flooring). Spending a couple of hundred upgrading the CU to be future proof for another 20 years would seem like a sensible investment.

Any recommendations for which CU to choose? Also, you can't do a job like this without buying some new kit. Would there be one thing that would make the CU swap easier for a mostly competent DIYer?
