A question for our DNO members

I came across an unusuall single phase cutout being dismantled in a youtube video was made by a company called Fluvent has any one ever heard of them. I'm guessing by the name they originally made bits for gas fires or boilers.  I'm familiar with BICC and Henley but I've never heard of fluent the cutout was double pole fused so must of been ancient

  • The company was  Parmiter, Hope and Sugden 

    renamed when al the founders had died off after its most successful products as Fluvent Electric

    in the 1970s GEC mopped up the fuse and switch gear parts , and soon after the rest of the company became part of  cableform  group and then the name vanishes
    Cableform became part of  Graystone  who morphed part of the modern Ring group, who now mainly distribute and re-badge sell lights and stuff made by others,

    there is no more original engineering in the UK.


    Progress of a sort.
