Type 2 MCBs

Post new thread

Discuss Type 2 MCBs in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

No,because a new installation would be fitted with current spec materials. An addition or alteration to an existing install might well involve fitting old spec mcb's in an older CU to supply the addition or alteration.
