MK Sentry (old style) MCB

Jan 29, 2005 7 Replies

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement 32A MCB for a MK Sentry (circa 1975?) - local wholesaler says they are rarer that rocking horse s..t, and suggests that I replace the entire consumer unit!! Not impressed.

MK do a kit for mounting up to 3 current MCB's into an older Sentry CU (they say suitable for non-'s' suffix and non-'K' prefix CU's). Part number is 5567s. If you want to fit more than 3, then you also need a replacement busbar, part 5511s.

I think you may be able to get a conversion thingy to use a new one in an old box. Can on some models anyhow.

There's a fair chance I've got one amongst the three hooj boxfulls of MCB's that I've collected over the years.

Many thanks - that's just what I need. ...and the wholesaler specifically said that there wasn't a mod available, but did offer a deal on a new CU :-).

Some of the larger B&Q's stock quite a few of the obscure MK CU accessories. I can't claim I've seen this specific item, but it might be worth a rummage through the shelves to see.

Peter I have a couple of LN5930 Type 2 if they are any good.
