Use of Old Serviceable M.E.M. switches and Switch Fuses.

Zoomup
Evenin' all,


 I have access to old unused or used but in good as new serviceable condition, metal clad M.E.M. switches and switch fuses, 15 to 32 Amp mainly.  You know the type, popular during the 60s to 80s. Battle ship grey painted, heavily chromed switch  handles, rewirable of H.R.C. fuse carriers. Some have ceramic innards. Very good contact distance clearance and good positive action upon switching.


Can I use them in new installations thus saving money and recycling materials?


Z.

    If this switchgear was, or is, suitable for modern purposes then they would still be manufatured. I suspect that they maybe regarded as an over engineered product and so breaks one of the fundamental rules of modern material design....no built-in planned obsolescence.....
