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?

    The used ones should not in my view be re used for a paying customer, except with the specific agreement of the customer.


    The natural Norfolk man is very careful with his money. He may have a small business in an old wooden shed making double glazed window frames, or be a farmer with many barns, or perhaps be a woodworker with a modest workshop. He will be only too happy to save money if he has a "new" machine installed to have a pre-owned isolator installed next to it. In fact the M.E.M. isolator may be the best quality and newest item in his workplace. I would of course tell the customer about the item.
