Hi all, the breakers for the Siemens DB I'm working on are now obsolete. I'm trying to get confirmation if there are other compatible mcbs and rcbos for the board ( it's a Siemens ODB 100 SW Series A db) and hopefully there is a photo of an existing mcb below. Siemens UK have been unhelpful
Cheers.

Can't help mate, but Siemens are a business if they can't flog you any replacement parts, they sure as hell can supply you wit a complete new board, until that runs out of production in the next 6 months or so.

Ain't that the truth. There's a fair amount to do on this job and I'm trying to avoid them having to fork out for a new board ( they already need a new panel board), but I need a few mcbs and rcbos which will fit, to make this happen.
 
@polo1 You can still get them mate, I bought some a few months back, slightly more than your average mcb but still obtainable. I got mine through my local Electric Center who I think dealt with siemens direct.
I have a customer with 3 x 3phase boards full of single mcb's which I am ripping out in the next couple of months but it is whether you could wait that long.

Thanks mate, interesting to hear that you got some recently; tbh Siemens were less than interested when I phoned - think I'll try again. Thanks too for the offer; think the customer is keen to get the work done asap due to insurance implications, but I'll give you a pm if that changes.
