Electrical help with MCB's please.

[simplesimon5]

Hello, I need to add a new MCB to my old Volex consumer unit for an oven we have just bought. The original MCB's are Volex Type 1
BS3871. I can't find a new corresponding one. I know that I am looking for a Type B 20Amp, but the ones that I have seen seem to have a different fitting method to the main bar. Could I be wrong though? Can anybody help please?

There is a guy on ebay selling old obsolete MCB's, in fact i've just bought one from him yesterday. I think he's listing the type you need (see link below) but he doesn't list 20amp as an option on the listing. May be useful to drop him a message, tell him what your looking for and see if he can help.
