Mains wiring question

I am moving the hook up inlet on my conversion and adding a consumer unit. The original library wiring did not include a consumer unit.
The unit I have bought has two breakers and space for a third, one breaker will be used for lights the other for a couple of sockets mainly for my ac fridge. My question is can I or should I wire my battery charger into the unit using a third breaker 24v 20amp charger.

It is fairly usual practice to have a breaker in the CU for a charger. A 10A MCB would be sufficient for all but the very highest chargers around and a 6A is typical fitment.
