[ElectriciansForums.net] What Crabtree type RCBO fits this board?

Hello guys, completely forgot to remove the board cover to check what type of rcbo was required for this particular Crabtree board. Anyone from experience know which type RCBO fits?

thanks in advance!!

Polestar is one DIN module wide = 17.5mm
The width of a DIN rail mounted device is standardised (maybe multiples of 0.5 module), as is the height of the bit that projects through the panel, and the positioning of that bit relative to the DIN rail.
All other dimensions, such as the depth of the device, the depth of the bit that projects through the panel, the height of the device, and the positioning of the in and out terminals is definitely and most unhelpfully, not standardised.

Bored this evening, so dug through my box of bits and found both - pretty sure it's a Starbreaker (The one I have is actually one of the late 3871 Type Bs)

So I presume a modern SB RCBO will fit without any problem.

If only other manufacturers cough Wylex were so careful about insuring compatibility over such a long period.
