Why would anyone pay £110+ for a 20A 3 phase MCB of any description, it's got to be cheaper overall ,and undoudtably safer, (especially when talking about these naff breakers) to replace the dammed DB!!
Nine times out of ten, your buying second hand breakers that you have no idea of it's previous service life!!
Desperate people will pay stupid amounts for these mcb's, I know swapping the DB would be better but let's be honest it's all the associated work that goes hand in hand is what costs the money and no one wants to pay. It definately wasn't second hand but the one I took out and put in the box definately is. I'll sell it you engineer for a bargain price of £50.
So back to the original post... You would put them down to be replaced on a EICR?
Code them on what grounds or departure?
Code 2- because engineer 54 says so. Do you think I'd get that one past the inspector?
