Need Source For Replacement Geweiss Circuit Breakers

[Loopy]

The AC panel of my ETAP has four DIN rail mount European spec breakers that are in need of replacement due to age/rust/etc.

A 40A 2 pole GFi (Residual Current) breaker for which i already found a suitable Siemens replacement.

The other three are 2 pole compact C10 breakers which are the width of a typical single pole breaker.

I have had no luck finding the equivalent product from either Siemens or another manufacturer and have had no luck finding a place that will sell new Gewiss breakers retail and ship them to the US.

Any recommendations?

City electrical factors sell a lot of gewiss stuff. I don't see any mtc mcbs listed on their website. They can probably source them for you. Won't be cheap.....

Appreciate the reference. I will give them a call. I find it hard to believe that Geweiss is the only company that makes 2 pole compact breakers but so far Google doesn't seem to know of any others.

Do you have space to use a physically larger breaker?

They're not - there's a number of other makes. I just had a quick look on Google and found AEG and GE for starters.

Thanks. Interesting that Google on this side of the pond didn't give me those results... Unfortunately I don't have space in the panel for full width 2 pole breakers....

You need to practise your Googling techniques!

When we are in La Linea in Spain I switch off location in my mini Ipad. I can then use google.co.uk to get a uk centric search. Otherwise the location bit of your machine lets mr google know where you are and he reverts to the country google engine
