Good evening people,

Next question from a non-sparky. My electrician has asked me to get a 60 amp MCB for a board, he said I would find one on ebay as the board is a few years older. The other MCBs are Wylex Type 2. I can't find a 60 amp Type 2 but I have seen Type 1, can some one tell me what the difference is and if a type 1 will fit? Google tells me these are rare now and I did read about compatible brands but I would rather keep Wylex if possible.
I can't get him on the phone tonight and I'm keen to get one ordered so I would be grateful if anyone can help.
Or if anyone happened to have one lying about that they would sell that would be superb!
Thanks in advance folks.
 
a pic would assist
 
Thanks for all the posts guys. It's well above my head and it is now Friday evening so beer time. I was on screwfix earlier looking for sockets and I noticed this, is it any use for what I need...?
Have a good weekend all!

That will not fit, what you are looking for is obsolete. You will only find a used device for that board. The range you need is the HB range, try Willrose Electrical.
