Is Dorman Smith switchgears still popular ? All the recent ones I have come across are Schneider or Eaton Memshields.

Just curious, I know Schneider are really popular at the moment and Dorman Smith must have been popular back in the days. I know they go acquired by other company recently.

    We had Dorman Smith boards at an anodizing  works I helped maintain all the boards were in reasonably good condition with little rust despite the damp corrosive atmosphere. They were all OK then one day during shutdown the DNO did a load of tests and it was surprising how many incorrectly rated breakers there were also insulation resistance was a bit low  so yes good boards up to that point
