Hello one and all, new to the forum.
Need a bit of info, and some help please.
Got a six year old house [2010 CU] 17th ed electrics,Hager consumer unit ,all the mcbs along the bus bar are MTN B ratings, but I want to put in a 16A dedicated socket on a commando blue plug and wall socket [ type used for caravans] with an mcb type NCN C or D rating at 32A to cope with the electric motor start surge, it is for a compressor, it will work in isolation, nothing else will be on that circuit. Problem is having bought the NCN C rated mcb which is almost identical to the MTN it will not fit the bar. I am assured it is the right one,but the electrical sales person says they should not be mixed anyway. eh! dont understand, all help appreciated.
