Yes best to match the ratings=85.I always get confused on the types I will

see
if I can get hold of my sparks to confirm.

There was a recent thread on using inline fuse holders and standard fuses
which I might be using on new jobs as it comes in at a lower cost. Although
this does lose you the ability to easily isolate individual circuits.

Thanks Mick

I have another question now...

I know the "best practice" is to put an MCB on each individual
output
channel, and since I hapenned to have a number of spare ones left over from
a consumer unit upgrade a couple of years ago, I have put a couple in
place... - my question is what actually is the best type?

What I happened to have were "type B" 6A ones... - what's the
difference
between types B, C, and D (and what ever hapenned to type A anyway?). I
presume I want the fastest reacting ones to protect the dimmer channels?

I also presume I should match the MCB rating to the dimmer channel
rating..=
.
- i.e. the dimmer channels are 2A so I guess I should put 2A MCB's on there
instead of the 6A ones I already have...

TIA

Paul G.

Yes standard back boxes including the 6 button, just fitted a load and yes
they are square not rectangular. I think Li has some pics of the square

At the weekend I finally got my *rse into gear and started my CBUS
install.=
.
- deep joy... Only got 1 light up & running so far (but I did have to
repaint an entire wall to make good where the old switches were removed...)
but at least it's a start!

Donwside is it appears to have killed a couple of X10 DIN modules that are
mounted right next to the CBUS Dimmer unit stone dead... - they work fine
o=
n
local control, but not by X10... - I assume the CBUS dimmer in close
proximity is killing the X10 signal, - more reason for me to hurry up &
upgrade those to CBUS as well I guess...

Quick question: - I'm just about to order up some more switches so I can do
precisely that, but I want to confirm that the square Saturns fit on
bog-standard UK size single-gang backboxes?... - even the the 6-button
ones?.. - the documentation for them says that they fit on standard
backboxes, but doesn't explicitly say *what* standard!! - despite being
called square, they look decidedly rectangular in any picture I can find...
- is that just because everyone is still using old pictures?

Cheers.

Paul G.
