Anybody come across the Lupus Electrical boards
the garage where i take my van has one in there.....Still loads of them about, good old death traps them C50s are.
did some condition reports on squared S line panels....their heavy gauge n all....Ahh this takes me back to dicing with death on live c50/dorman smith/early merlin gerin D boards.
trying to terminate pyros into some of these was a right sweaty experience.
i would like to see some young uns pull the cover off and see the ****e we had to deal with!
ottermill was common on council / government jobs for a while they were a bit tight if I remember right.
did a board change today removing a Wylex 3036 8 way.
The steel was about 2mm thick !
never seen one of them melt into a lump of charred plastic though.....
Part of decomissioning I went through a few otter mill boards and thought them ok, although I only had to make sure they were dead
However the Reyrolle kit was as good as the day it went in 60 odd years ago
MEM on the other hand, installed less than 10 years ago...rusted right out
they are..If I remember right they were magnetic hydraulic trips, hence the terrible trip curves and reliability.
