The British Rail Class 413 (or 4Cap) units were formed from 1982 by permanently coupling two Class 414 2Hap units together. There were two sub-classes of units: class 413/2, units 3201 - 3213, converted in 1982 from phase 1 2 HAP units 6001-6049. These units were formed DTCsoL - MBSO - MBSO - DTCsoL, with the former driving equipment of the DMBSO decommissioned, giving the new designation; and class 413/3, units 3301 -3311 ( formed 1982) and 3321 - 3325 (formed 1991), converted from the later phase 2 build units 6050 - 6173. These units were formed with the DMBSO outermost giving the formation, DMBSO - TCsoL - TCsoL - DMBSO, with the centre vehicles again having their driving equipment decommissioned.

Eleven Class 413/3 unit were converted in 1982 from 'Phase 2' 2Hap units (6043-6173, later reclassified as Class 414/3). Units were marshalled with the driving motor vehicles in the centre. In 1991 a further five units (3321-3325) were converted from 'Phase 2' 2Hap units (by now renumbered into the range 4301-4322). These units had the driving motors marshalled outermost.
