got a meter cupboard to rewire this week and will be removing old MEM switch gear 3P 63A and SP 63A switch fuses to a new cupboard and will be connecting it to a new ryefield. I am replacing the MEM switchgear as its rusted and contains asbestos. Were using a 63A KMF for the SP circuit I remember someone posted about using an angled piece of brass to ensure a good connection into the KMF. Does anyone know the official name and where i can get my hands on some as its all Armoured cabling.

if you have the room it would be easier to install a metal switch fuse.

The official name is brass angle and I buy it on eBay from metalwork companies who sell their offcuts on there.

And it was me who posted about it a while ago. I only do that kind of thing where there isn't enough space to do it properly though.
