Will an RCBO fit in the MK board?

Anyone tried the new Circpro ones yet, with their snazzy black SPD?

Yes, they are on some promo in Kew Electrical at present. not too bad, the MK slant isnt as bad as it was but do find the CU itself flexes and distorts easily if wall isnt perfectly flat when screwed back.
Does the job, I bought 4 of them to fit on eicr remedials and would use again.
My only gripe is there is no 40mm knock out for the tails

I replaced a 6A in a board that I believe was this vintage fairly recently - it was MK old stock, bought from TLC and went in with no problems at all.

I believe the new Circpro are identical, except that they are now available in Type A.

Edit: - just looked back and my one are the slightly different layout (newer?), though same model - 5906

Are you saying that the 69 and 79 RCBO's fitted that board Dartlec?

The one I bought was MK7932S - this one, which fitted my board with no issues at all... Type AC was the only option at the time, but looks like the new Type As are now available....




This was the existing setup - I replaced the 6A for bathroom lighting/upstairs.

I discovered i had an MK (79) RCBO in the van and an old MK CU in the shed. It fits perfectly!

Hello Gavin,

Seeing you pop up made me think of..... EVCP's ?

I'm allowed to highjack my own thread ?

OZEV sent me an email saying I had to put my forecast in for the month, and do this by the 14th. I haven't done this, and plan to fit an EVCP in 2 days. Can i still send this one through this month or should I wait until July (when I'll fill out the forecast form properly)?
