A free printable circuit schedule template — one consumer unit way by way, with what each circuit feeds, its cable, its protective device and RCD arrangement.
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.
Print it and write on it
Fill it in type and save
The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
Leave a legible schedule in the lid of the board so the next person to open it knows what every way does without tracing cables.
Electricians fitting or altering a consumer unit, and property owners who want a readable record of their own board.
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One consumer unit, way by way: what each circuit feeds, the cable it runs in, the device protecting it and where it sits in the RCD arrangement — the schedule that goes inside the lid. Ratings and sizes are what your design put in; test results go on the certificate your scheme issues, not here.
Write-on lines: Property · Address · Date · Completed by · Board make & model · Board location · Supply type / earthing · Main switch · Main earth / bonding · RCD arrangement · SPD fitted · Spare ways
Table, 12 rows: Way · Circuit · Cable · Size · Device · Rating · RCD · Points · Notes

Because each is a design decision for that circuit, made under the rules where you work, and the sheet has no business suggesting one. The columns record what is fitted.
No. Test results and the declaration go on whatever certificate your scheme issues. This is the schedule that describes the board — which is often the part the household actually reads.
Produce as-built information for the certificate, the client and the next person to open the ceiling, instead of reconstructing it from memory.
Give the customer, the monitoring centre and whoever services the system next a single page that says exactly what is fitted and where.
Remember who did what, what it cost, and who was worth calling back — and have a dated record if a dispute ever starts.
Capture a job while you are still standing in it: what was asked for, what was done, what went into it and how long it took.
Every sheet, binder, game and puzzle on Upkeep Papers is free to download, with no email and no account. Making them is not free: each one takes days of research, design and checking, and the site costs money to run. If something here saved you time, you can buy us a coffee. It is entirely optional: nothing is locked, and nothing changes if you don’t.
