Whats people's views on Europa Components

[David Stanley]

My local E/W are trying to get me to change to Europa Components items such as C/U, garage boards and enclosures.
Haven't come across there items before, what are people's view's if they've used them in the past.

Hi David. Have you got any vested interest in Europa Components ie are you an employee / part of their sales team perhaps?

Who makes Europa anyways?

Its about the same quality as cpn and chint in my view.

Fitted a 100A isolator with enclosure and a few 20A rotary isolators recently, complete garbage will not use again.

Who makes Europa anyways?

The Chinese make them, the ,MCB's and RCD's at least, they're just branded as Europa Components.

Marvo,
As stated my local wholesaler are trying to move me to a selection of the items.
How is it in cape town

It was hot as Hades yesterday but managed to go for a swim in the ocean at lunchtime which helped and today it's fairly mild thanks. How's things in the UK?

When I go to local wholesaler i tend to tell them what I want not what they want to push, get rid of. I know what I like and what is good they are just sales people

There pretty garbage really. You can tell it's cheap, I think chint is better of the budget brands.

Just poor quality, poor screws, poor terminals, poor build quality...

Although I've installed there IP56 or there abouts industrial type socket outlets and they where decent actually.
