if you dont mind

1, i need a b20 GE mcb, but am strugling to get one for tommorrow, do any other brands fit, i have a volex, square d, mcg and knocking around

2 terminating some 2.5mm flex and all i have left are these(no blue:_|) http://www.screwfix.com/prods/56166/Electrical-Supplies/Cable-Accessories/Crimps-Terminals/Pin-Terminal-12mm-Long-Pack-100-Red

and without shopping tommorrow i have these but not sure if or how they work http://www.screwfix.com/prods/58977/Electrical-Supplies/Cable-Accessories/Crimps-Terminals/4-00mm-Insulated-Cord-End-Grey-Pack-100?cm_mmc=GoogleBase-_-Datafeed-_-Electrical%20Supplies-_-4.00mm%2C%20Insulated%20Cord%20End%2C%20Grey%20-%20Pack%20100

3. house i am working at has a shower on non rcd side of board, the shower is on a 32 amp. going to offer to move it to rcd side

the rcd is 80 amps, and has two rings and imersion on it, and a spare way, am i right in thinking that the rcd would also handle the shower as well, cant see it getting up to 80 amps for total load,

4 and finaly is warmup underfloor heating crap without the insulation boards.

sorry so many questions thanks

 
1: many others will fit. jsut see what is the closest match

2: the red will not work. the 4mm ferrule may work, depending on how well your crimp tool crimps it

3: should be fine

4: no idea

 
thanks for quick response mate, so you do crimp the ferrule, they dont look like they crimp too well, will prob just get some blue pin, or bit of solder maybe
