Wylex B32 MCB 32 Amp - Very Good Value
I owe great thanks to Christopher Dennett (Cumbria UK) for his review on the "Wylex B6 6A Type B MCB" of February 2013. - His Review applies to the 32Amp also.In his review he explains thus:This review is from: Wylex B6 6A Type B MCBThis was his email:I bought the item above knowing full well it might not be right for our fuse box, and unfortunately it doesn't fit.We have quite an old fuse box. It looks like the thing I bought from you would do the job, but the prongs are too close together.The response: (after which I installed the mcb in 5 mins)Hi Chris, the unit you have bought is the correct replacement for your board, you will notice the part you have received comes in two parts, the MCB and the shield, you need to turn your fuse board off and undo the screw in the existing shield in your fuse board ( the plastic bit left in the board when you take the rewire-able fuse out) there is a small screw in the center, once removed replace with the new shield and insert the MCB, hope this helps.Well back to me now:- I can confirm that I also talked to "Palmer Riley" by telephone - who was very helpful.I have purchased two of the 6Amp (Lighting Circuits) and two of the 32Amp (Ring Main Circuits).I followed the instructions as per "Christopher Dennett's" review - everything OK.Many thanks to Christopher Dennett and of course Palmer Riley.

Simply works
Very pleased with this. Simply turn the power off and replace the blanking plate in the fuse-box with the one provided (if you have an old-style box like I do) which is attached by one screw, plug this in and you have instant fuse protection on the circuit.Note, this is NOT THE SAME AS AN RCD, it just reacts like a normal fuse, so you do NOT get any protection from electric shock with this device).

Fuss Free Replacement for Old Style Wired Fuse
Bought as a replacement for an old style wired fuse in an existing fusebox. Easy to replace - turn off power at fusebox, pull out fuse you want to replace, unscrew (one screw) existing socket cover, replace with new socket cover (supplied, red in picture), plug in new breaker, turn on fuse box and breaker.

Electric Breakers
Had recourse to change the old (50 years and counting) fusebox system in opur flat (the council would not change because they 'were not broken' - hence my ordering these to update - have had no problem with any fusewire failues since fitting.

Git this as my old fuse broke, and it is really hard to buy locally, so I bought this off Amazon, as it is only available and the prices . Really pleased with it.
