    Coloured "Henley blocks" from Lewden

    Very rarely do I see any promotion that makes me think "Oh, I should get some of those!" but recent spam from Lewden was for 100A joining blocks in the 3P+N+E colours. TLC seem to have them (or at least will stock them soon)...

    Lewden MCB compatibility

    Hi all I can't remember if the current range of Lewden MCBs fit these boards? It's to supply SWA so RCBO not needed. Thanks for any help.

    Swapping solid conductor in lewden board for flex

    Hello, I've worked on a few old lewden boards recently and the quality is terrible. When fitting rcbos in 16th edition boards there's a solid bar that gets in the way of the taller device and they go in wonky enough as is. I was considering swapping it for a 100A flexible link, are any of you...

    Lewden 30mA type A RCBOs

    Happy new year guys, I installed a new Lewden CU today and all the type A RCBOs failed when tested at x5 (150mA) at the end of the circuit. However, when tested at the terminals of the RCBO they tripped in around 38/39ms. I am aware that Hager have had issues with their 61008 RCCBs and suggest...

    Is a Chint MCB identical to a control gear direct MCB (or lewden)?

    I was carrying out an EICR today. The consumer unit was a Control gear direct board. It had one chint MCB in it which had been put in recently. It looked absolutely identical to all the cgd MCB's. Is Chint in any way affiliated with CGD/Lewden or is this just a coincidence?

    Lewden Control Gear Direct no longer manufactured?

    I have just heard that Lewden / Control Gear Direct have stopped producing their circuit protective devices as of 13th May, is this anything anyone else has heard of or can confirm? I have used a fair number of their consumer units and RCBOs and will be nonplussed if I now have to tell customers...

    Lewden 100a switch fuse burnt out

    Has anyone had problems with this switch fuse??? I went to one last year which was warm to the touch, so I changed it for an Amd3 metal one. I found this one today burnt out, close call. The screw terminals were tight - the source of the heat looks to be the contact inside the switch. This one...

    Lewden RCBO consumer units

    Does anyone have any experience with these ? Have been offered some at a great price but I have no experience of the brand whatsoever. I will probably try one or two out but just wondered if anyone could offer direct experience of these ?

    Lewden DZ47 RCBO?

    I am looking for an RCBO to fit this board. Do all the breakers with the lewden (or denmans) logo (triangle pointing right in a black oval) have the same fittings? For example some MCB's have 'EC' on them whereas this CU has 'DZ47', also the RCBO's with this same logo do not have any markings...
