Wylex RECSW2S

This is a 100 Amp 2 pole switch with enclosure to suit meter tails.


After having taken a small sample of the plastic enclosure, and holding it in a pair of pliers, then applying a small cigarette lighter flame.....


the sample burned giving off black acrid smoke and it did not self extinguish.


Should we be concerned?

  • Might a glow-wire test be more appropriate? It would be a strange fault in an electrical switch that exposed the case to a gas flame...
