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

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?

  • One of the developments in switchgear is that it it is still "fingerproof" IP20 when you open it. I think that the old MEM range has accessible incoming terminations?

    If so it wouldn't comply with current standards and shouldn't be used in a new installation.
