Weren't the early ones like MK Sentry ?

Ah! Thanks guys . I'm quoting for a small machine supply and forgot to get the part No. from the existing ones .

Its a Siemens Stratum 400 board .

The MCB is TP The catalogue shows it as a 5SX2 3C16.

But I want to get a part No. from an existing breaker just to be sure .

Its a toss up between dropping the size of the breaker or fitting a 20A TPN switchfuse . HAVE YOU SEEN THE PRICE OF THOSE THINGS NOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Over

They do look like MK Sentry, Sloppy . Someone said that Siemens used to make the MK MCBs .

What size breaker do you want ?16 Amp three pole C type ?

Yes Paddler 16A TP TypeC. I fitted these boards about 18 years ago , my wholesaler promptly stopped stocking them ,and I've had a slight problem locating breakers ever since.

Often a case of wholesaler can't be arsed to track one down .

That was probably at the same time MK stopped doing three phase gear.

I may want a 3 pole 6A C type, my mate has just bought a milling machine...not sure of size yet though...6 or 10A max I would have guessed

Done that ...thanks Paddler.
