Did an easy CU change today, the only things of note were there was only one RFC and in the old Wylex each leg was connected to its own 30 amp fuse ! The place was built in 1964 so probably been like that for 50 years ?
The other unusual [to me] thing was a '2 part' Crabtree trip switch with a separate big coil unit - no actual connection from the board to a 'field' terminal as you would find in a traditional voltage trip either, so I'm wondering if this was a very early RCD ?
A couple of before and after pics are attached to peruse....
