Default British General 13A RCD Fused Spur White (8250P): Puzzle

On Fri, 08 Feb 2019 16:27:14 +0000, I wrote:

The unit has a front panel, which
appears to be mounted onto the rear base that contains the cabling
connection.
The fuse-holder seems to be within the front panel, so I'm conjecturing
that if the front panel was taken off and replaced by the equivalent
front panel of a new identical unit, then that could restore the status
quo without having to mess with cable connections.


Sadly, not so, I find. Main unit just fixes onto shell wall baseplate.
Would need to disconnect faulty unit, remove it and connect new unit to
old
wires. I now know exactly how to do that, but will have to get an
electrician
to do it, as at my age (85) I dare not risk the danger of overbalancing
when
reaching up towards unit high on garage wall for the time that would take.

Many thanks for all responses. Much appreciated...
