[QUOTE="flyingsparky, post: 264259, member: 4405"] In the latest NICEIC mag, there is an article on this. Their view is that it should not be done unless manufacturers of both types of MCB confirm that they are compatible. They claim there may be an overheating issue. Sounds like doggy doo doo to me but it raises the question about what the inspector would say I saw that you had done it on a job he was looking at. Classic case of pen pushers looking for something else to balls up? How would you prove it was safe if you ever ended up in court because something happened at the install address? [/QUOTE]
