MK Sentry (old style) MCB
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement 32A MCB for a MK Sentry
(circa 1975?) - local wholesaler says they are rarer that rocking horse s..t, and suggests that I replace the entire consumer unit!! Not impressed. Peter |

Not impressed. MK do a kit for mounting up to 3 current MCB's into an older Sentry CU (they say suitable for non-'s' suffix and non-'K' prefix CU's). Part number is 5567s. If you want to fit more than 3, then you also need a replacement busbar, part 5511s. -- Andrew Gabriel |

strung together this: Does anyone know where I can get a replacement 32A MCB for a MK Sentry (circa 1975?) - local wholesaler says they are rarer that rocking horse s..t, and suggests that I replace the entire consumer unit!! Not impressed. There's a fair chance I've got one amongst the three hooj boxfulls of MCB's that I've collected over the years. -- SJW Please reply to group or use 'usenet' in email subject |

I can't claim I've seen this specific item, but it might be worth a rummage through the shelves to see. -- Andrew Gabriel |
