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?

    You really want to get on the list of folk who rent such things to TV and film for period dramas - the wartime to 1960s detective stories and so on seem to pay a small fortune for authentic props - and they do not even get turned on.. (My other half is involved in film acconting, and the numbers are eye-watering.)


    Mike, I have never owned up to this until now. But I feel it is time to. I am actually a very handsome well known international film star. The thought of being upstaged by a 1970s grey  M.E.M. metal clad isolator is anathema to me. I need to remain the star attraction. I can't have my long legged blond actresses  fantasising about a prop.
