Hi,

I got a phone call yesterday from a guy working for a wholesaler called Ralco. Has anyone used these before?

He was offering BG British General boards 17th Dual RCDs for

Not fitted any M4tty , but they are probably as good as all the others ,based on the busbar comb style . Assuming they comply with BS .

Crabtree Starbreaker is in its own league IMHO .

I think B & Q were selling the BG boards. I know BG accessories are good quality so would assume the boards are ok.

i think Noz or KME did a review on these a while ago.

he said the board was good and sturdy and thought is was good untill he tightend up the mcb, the threads broke off so you have to be carefull with them

i've fitted a couple in the past 2 weeks and can't really say that they aren't good for the money. Good thing about them is the Neutrals from the RCD's etc, they are flexible which means when your installing 10/12 circuits into the board, you can remove the Neutral "fly" leads and re-connect after you've got your conductors terminated and neatly in place.....Unlike the Chnt boards which have solid Neutrals!

Never stripped the threads either and I get things TIGHT!
