Wylex BS3871 mcbs?

[sixfingers]

Hi guys i have an installation with some old wylex bs3871 mcbs fitted on side of mcb is printed Breaking capacity M9,I take it that would mean 9k breaking at? And also as bs3871 maximum earth fault loop impedance reading are no longer in current regs would you use the bs60898 max readings? Or have i missed the page for them? Cheers
