Anyone else come across one of these?
38 amp MCB. It's an old proteus centaur. Looks very similar to old crab tree breakers. But I've never seen or heard of that rating before.

I did think id seen it on the Green Onsite guide (not sure where i put that) but on the Yello talks of 30 32 and 40 MCBs
What was it supporting, out of intrest
 
Never seen a non adjustable 38A mcb, maybe it was specially made for a 6.0 T&E which in general terms is not rated at 40A.
 
check cable size and installation method, load current, and then replace with either a 32A or a 40A as required.
