Would you re-use 'used' RCBO's / other item's too??

Hi, just wondering whether it's prudent to re-use 'used' RCBO's, RCD's, fuses etc like; MCB's, switches, DSO's, SWA's, CCU's and the rest?


What do you think and... what electrical items have you re-used, if any?

    No issue using ‘seconds’ if needed..

    on Friday  I fitted a load of old square edge MK stuff I obtained of eBay as the flat owner wanted MK to match the existing MK. I only charged for exactly what the materials cost me and explained they were used seconds but I checked over and all seemed in good working order.

    what I really liked was the 3 old style switch spurs had the old wrap around terminals for the load side for the stranded cable.


    But as above old stock / seconds are generally used for cheap temporary jobs or mates rates jobs
