Unusual MCB

Sparkymania
Here's an interesting one.

Federal Electric 20A MCB. Had no type on it and was taking a long time to trip. Opened one up and discovered why it didn't have a type.

Others with it were ECC but virtually the same design. Only thermal. Both are plug in types called stab-lok and are bakerlite.


No instantaneous trip mechanism. Only a thermal one.

    RCBOs?


    I can't imagine these come as RCBO versions when they don't even have a magnetic trip mechanism.
