The whole offer included: The switchboard itself Dial-out addon ~50m of ab wire 3x single lightning protectors (Natobrötchen) Quante junction for lightning protection? and a fire extinguisher (for some reason lol) And all that for about ~330€. I managed to convince a financially responsible friend from the Eigenbaukombinat to purchase it together, because I don’t have that much money just laying around.
