MCB’s and their Replacement

1. Is replacing a faulty MCB non-Notifiable?
2. What is the solution to replacing an MCB , when the faulty one is no longer available from the manufacturer ?

1. Like for like maintenance replacement of components or sections of cable are not notifiable..

2. After wasting too much unpaid time over the years, faffing around trying to locate replacement components for obsolete equipment, for one-off customer/jobs, that in reality are probably not that economical viable....
I generally find it best to either remove obsolete kit and replace with current and/or install some new kit along side the existing obsolete stuff... Or Walk Away!


(It's a similar principal to quite a few years back when I stopped faffing around with split-load/dual RCD CUs.. just quote & fit full RCBO CUs... or walk away!!)

simples!
