Legrand MCB

[sparkz]

I need to know what other mcb's can fit a Legrand mainsboard. (Crabtree mcb's can fit into a Wylex board)

Cheers

realy you shouldnt fit other manufactures MCB's into other boards the reason wylex and crabtree do is because they are the same Electrium having said that the crabtree MCB's are now different ,volex newlec and sector are also manufactured by electrium

I can think of a billion types that will go into a wylex/crabtree/squareD Domea/Castlec/Newlec/Zahler and on and on and on - may need a bit of a shoehorn but they will work. One of the reasons I tend not to use MK, MEM etc board-wise is because they've all got their little quirky fittings and there's no need for it. All breakers are made to a BS number and must be to a certain standard - there's nothing wrong with using different brands. They should all be made to the same form factor.

Unfortunately have never used LeGrand so I can't help I'm afaraid. Go and buy one of the breakers I have listed above and if it fits, any of them will fit (with a bit of persuasion).
