Whats the best accesory brand

[zeroberto]

When I was starting out some 30 years ago It was pretty well drummed into me that the best to worst accessories to use were

first - MK
then - Crabtree
then nothing much to choose between the rest except for
last - any CEF own brand!

whats your rating now?

another 2 questions
1 - Crabtree still a step above most?
2 - anyone tried the new Hager range of sockets/switches. Local independent has them in and must say the look terrifiic with a decent build quality as well.

cheers

MK...because we find customers still associate the brand with quality,and we always state on our estimates that MK will be installed.
That said all the comments about the plate switches are justified...awful....if your terminal driver is a bit 'used' forget it,trouble ahead.
Also had a lot of comeback with faulty FCU's of late....
Crabtree also good...and starbreaker CU's are our first choice.

MK, as it's specified on just about every tender I get nowadays.

Neweys own otherwise, as it's just about all I can get hold of easily round my way.....unless you actually want to use.....vimark!!!
