Default Re: Failing Schaffner IEC Inlet Filters

Hello, I do hope your Son recovers soon, a couple of points:

I have never worked out why Australians love Clipsal so much, it seems to be used everywhere over there! Here, it is considered by many to be bottom of the barrel rubbish, certainly not top class. Do you not have any higher quality accessories? Is the Aus gear made better than the UK version? The style is certainly the same.

The stuff over here is getting poorer every year, even what was top quality a few years ago. The quality, and more important, safety of modern electrical equipment and accessories is often questionable, even the high priced items.

I'm sure I have a 20A chassis mount Schaffner filter in use home here, is this type affected too?
Edit: its a Roxburgh
