On euro mini's, i fit grommet to 230v hole, flex in as you do, but when you screw panel to wall, it pretty much pushes grommet off. Now its still trapped between flex and panel case but looks bad. Obviously down to not enough stand off.

Whats the inspectorates view on this, as i cant see its my fault for poor design.

brass 20mm ferrels make good ready made stand offs when needed, always carry them on board where I don't tend ti carry the conduit connectors.

A good friend ( install Engineer) and myself used to time eachother on a TS700 to prog it and work correctly.

I can say hand on heart we took less than one min to have it set up ( yes some commands were set as default).

Then we played with the 900`s and 2200`s and 2500`s.

You cannot "speed" prog the M`s from the keypads anymore, they lock up.

TS above 510 were the dogs.

I drop basic program in via laptop from a choice if several template which includes labels, timers and so on

1 front door

2 hall

3 lounge

4 kitchen

5 dinning room

6 study

7 landing

8 main bedroom

I have larger template for larger houses, skso ofice and warehouse formats, I see it use templates for the spec do why not the panel program.

Easy enough then to change a description say study for conservatory, like having a regular colour code you know which zone is what if they phone with a problem.

One thing i never liked with older Scanny. Some needed code only, some 0, 0 + ent, Then if you've got a couple of codes out there like us, its twitchy bum time come code tamps!! and watch option 98 :fear:
