PeterW Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 Cheers Yesss do them near me, and the merchant price is the same as TLC without delivery so may go that route. Next question is where to get a length of DIN rail top hat.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately that applies to the standard design of meter box. I have yet so see one that does not have two tiny flimsy little pins as hinges. It seems to be what everyone makes. they need to be treated with care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
