Need to supply nine single phase submains 63amp for each one. Had a price off Neweys for the MEM today don't think I'll be ordering that lol !

Got the last one from my local Electricfix on Saturday its quite a bargain for the price

Looks just like the Stanley FatMax tote i used to have but with a cover over it, which would have been great on the highways to keep the rain out. Only issue i had is the handle tends to break where it joins the sides. What does one of these Facom totes cost ?
