ck led version takes some beating and under £20 quid lasts for ages and bright

shame to rip out that Great British db and replace with cheap Chinese stuff as im not sure that the stuff your Replacing it will last as long as MEM/Bill stuff has, great solid boards to work on seems nasty to rip it out

Hager SOLLSYTA for me all the way, MK is over priced over specified junk that  would never use unless I have to. Over the years the stuff has got worse  its a shame as the old logic range was the industry leader and Sentry was considered the bogs bollocks, how could a company so respected get it...

Iis this installation temporary as a whole different set of regs apply, you should look at what type of earthing arrangement is at the origin of supply if its TNS then you can use ordinary breakers in the DB and you could fit dual outlet sockets that come prewired to individual rcbos they also...

I used to do a lot of hook up points down here in Cornwall, the importance is not to connect PME to the socket outlet terminal but correctly you should not distribute PME TNCS around the site so you may have to install a time delay RCD/MCCB at the source if you have TNS you will comply we have...

Hager all the way for me better than MK but they need to expand the range and get some affordable dimmers

fitted some new style crabtree switched spurs this week utter rubbish, very tiny terminals with cage type entry thinner plate and no more on logo fitted to the switch looks like a bit of dumbing down for crabtree not sure ill be using them again

Have Crabtree changed the switched spur backs then to the same style as the crappy sp switched sockets away from tunnel terminals to grip terminals not so impressed with them can u post a picture of the new desigin

Magic gel is still waterproof even though it is not completely set, I had to do a load of joints on bollards that had no access panels on them I filled wiska boxes with gel back in December and no trouble as it was too cold to get it to set at the time -2 so had to take a chance

hager all the way kicks mk and crabtree in to touch sollysta is the best ive ever fitted in 26 years of being a sparks!

Those Volex sockets have the same terrible backs that Crabtree now have, so if you have to buy Crabtree or Volex by the double pole ones that Citys sell they have tunnel terminals
