Discuss Could someone help with the age of this DB? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

The protective devices you have are probably BS3871 type C but in some circumstances the white written ones are type 2. You would need to remove each one, type 2 are always printed as such. Some state type C (3871) but if if is not printed assume type C. Crabtree were still producing these up until a few years ago in the guise of 60898 type C they are actually quite rare I've only ever seen one.
 
Wouldn't you know it. John also posted a video of a C.50 board, albeit a (later?) steel enclosure.
Saw one last week, as above there are quite a lot of them out there.
What was a first for me was finding a 7.5 amp circuit breaker.
