Your question is quite vague. Are you looking at doing this yourself? Do you have any experience working on electrical?
Are you in the US or Canada? I see you wrote your height in meters.

I am a engineer & have an understanding of electrics. I just want to move it down into a cupboard where it can't be seen,.

Well then I'll bow out as I have zero knowledge of European Systems other than your hot and neutral are brown and blue.

In the US you would NOT be allowed to put a panel in a cupboard.

Yeah, just like when gas was $4.40/gal, I knew we were not alone in this mess.
