DIN Rail Enclosure Boxes

[Darkness]

Do most DIN rail enclosures vary in size in terms of say using MK mcb's in Hager enclosures

I have a garage RCD cu which I want to change cause I need to add a few new circuits and I'm reduced to two circuits with the garage cu I have presently.

I want to buy a new enclosure and fit the RCD+mcb's from the garage cu into the new one.

If I bought a branded enclosure like hager, mk etc will different branded mcb's fit ok in the enclosure? or is there a slight difference in size between different branded mcb's?

I want to opt for a different enclosure to the volex make of the mcb's i'm using as I want a higher rated IP and one that looks nicer.

TLC offer different branded enclosures but does anyone know of anywhere else that will offer other makes/style/higher IP rated?

For some reason I don't like the sound of Volex mcb's in a MK/Hager enclosure.

try local electrical wholesaler

My local stores had very limited range and nothing really suitable. I tried a new wholesaler in my area, regarded as the biggest in NI but because its just a counter style place and you ask for what you want, the guy could only find 3-4 rubbish one's with hager being the only choice.

have a look at some of the mail-order electrical supply websites, and screwfix.

Been to screwfix, TLC, RS and some others but the range is limited.

I found a couple but as always, you can't buy direct from them unless its a huge quantity.

They also seem to come with 100a switches etc which I don't want.

I know Newlec din-rail boxes fit Wylex and MK breakers very well.
