    Thanks Dean, another question.
    What is the best practice/method of taking multiple feeds off various supplies 240v, 70v & 24v, neutrals and earths in a control cabinet?
    I am trying to put a bill of materials together.

    Buy Din rail connectors (like these ! Din Rail Terminals 2.5mm CTS2.5UN, RS Electrical Supplies West Midlands) then connect several together with terminal strips to form distribution blocks. You can also get, Earth blocks, Fuse holders etc.

    Mains MCB's can fasten to the same Din rail.

    I don't use the linked company it's just a good example to show what I mean.

    How about something along these lines ?

    As Dean says use proper din rail terminals, weidmuller is an industry standard but you can get cheaper clones, at least you can see the range on offer at their website.

    Jim Thought I better just make something clear.
    When I say connect together with terminal strips to form blocks. I mean You can buy strip with holes in that match connectors which fasten across top of the connectors all nice and neat.!!. . . I wasn't meaning you jump wires or anything like that. . Lol
