Wylex, (old type / 1960's... haha), MCB's BS3871 "type B"

Tomgunn
Hi...


I have two 1960's Wylex boards, (1 x 6 way for the power and 1 x 4 way for the lighting), they are built like tanks and, I wouldn't change them for the world, (maybe for a new Jaguar perhaps?)!!


I'm ok for the power side, even have some spares BUT, I need 4 x 5 amp MCB's for the lighting, as they are all BS3036's so, the question is... do any modern MCB's fit the old type CCUs'?


The annoying thing is... I know my son throws loads of these away, (as he's doing CCU changes all the time!!), and I have asked him to save some for me BUT, you know what kids are like????


Thanks... Tom

    You know, I've just binned a lot of those of various ratings, but I've still got boxes to go through from when we moved in 2016 - you should have asked last week! I'll have a rummage during the week.







    Hello Norm, hope you're keeping well!!


    Hahaha, ain't it always the same??? I asked my neighbour if he had some really old little tins of paints, that he might not need, and he'd just dumped loads in his bin, over a few weeks', as he didn't want them anymore... I am into painting, hahaha, (my daughter HATES the idea), radiators in different colours!


    Oh well, thanks Norm!!! If you do have any then that would be great, OBVIOUSLY, I'll pay for them... cheers!


    regards, Tom
