A lot of mnafacturers sell them in a certain configuraion IE 6+6 or 6+4 but if you buy an MK one then you can just buy the enclosure,main switch,RCD and a split load kit to configure it any way you want. If it is only the one circuit you want RCD protection on why dont you just use a single module RCBO which is an rcd and mcb combined in one unit, that way you can just put it on the circuit you need in a main switched board, no need for a split load board.

Thanks Nick
I knew there would be a way to do this its just I don,t have a lot of practical experience on using the products availabe for general / domestic installs being limited to defined applications with some variation
Thanks again
