Mem rcbo pods

[Rauer]

Following the recent shocking increase in price is there any alternative?

Tin hat on ready...
Wylex rcbo's will fit with just the slightest smidgen filed off of the busbar prongs, and even look the part, It will void whatever warranty MEM may have given should anything happen........

 

[somersetsparks]

BTW. You have to remove busbar to fit them as wylex have DIN rail clip at bottom and MEM at top but as I said, they have a striking resemblence to the MEMshield and memera ones!

Thank you!!

Will the new branded Eaton RCBOs not fit?

£18.00+VAT each isn't exactly expensive.

 

[Rauer]

Similar price from my wholesalers aswell. The gits keep the price artificially high due to no real alternative. Just paid a small fortune for 6 of these. Not happy

I spoke to several wholesalers , mem have put the price up on them!! Some one quoted me £80 !!! Apparently it's mem being impossible to deal with as usual, so I was told anyway!

Same here, I have recently had to get 32 of these for one job which was not cheap. Luckily the client pays for them.

 

[Rauer]

32!!! Be better for a board change!!!

 

[Adam]

Not really, lol.
I get that comment from wholesales all the time (when buying MR30's, MEM 1 MCB's, or Square D QOE RCBO's).

Many boards across a large site. Only a few RCD's needed for each.

 

[Rauer]

Sounds like it must be a very large site!!!!!

Are they the pods for memshield 2, converting mcb's. If so, it's because we're on memshield 3 now.

 

[Rauer]

Think so yeah!
