This might seem like a dumb question, but I got a Wylex REC2S isolator and there are no screws for fixing the covers on. Am I unlucky they have been lost from this box, or is there some obscure part I also need to order to get the fasteners to hold the covers on?

Unlucky, I'm afraid.
 
Just a question about the same item.

Ive been going around my local wholesalers and no one has one in stock to have a look at, but is the cover reversible? ie, I want supply to come in from bottom, and load out the top.... just because of the length of tails coming off the meter. The cover will be turned also.
 
you are lucky you got anything in the box at all, The last couple of Wylex mains units I've got (and a crabtree one today) don't supply the grommet strip anymore for the knockouts. Had to use the sheath of some T&E today as I was miles from any wholesalers to go and get some. Thats a ----take especially how much they charge for their gear compared to someone like Fusebox which is better quality anyway.

Yes, cover can go on either way.

Basically it looks like a 100A incomer switch in a plastic box. However, there might be a preferred use of the big cover versus little one (e.g. big on incoming side, etc). Nothing in the way of documentation supplied either. Probably away with the screws...
