I had five out of eight Niglon RCBOs fail to respond to the test button today. Three 6A, and two 16A . One of the 16A 'blew' / 'exploded inside', after pressing the button a few times. Wasted half a day because of it :banghead:

Anyone else? I'm just wondering if there's a wider issue here.

(It reminded me of the Wylex 16 and 6A mcb issues a couple of years ago - just in that it's 16s and 6s).

Cheers Chaps.
 
Lol...i got 8 Niglons for a job last december, and half didn't work how weird :/ the 8 i had were all 16A.

I've never bought Niglon since, always hager if possible for me now.
