The material entry for this unit is incorrect.
It is listed as: Modern plastics (no Bakelite or Catalin).
This is an error, the 'plastic' case/s are made from Urea Formaldehyde (a later & improved version of Catalin) and commonly used in British domestic mains electric switches & sockets.
I have discovered this information myself, having just acquired this model to my collection and close examination & testing of the moulding material used to make this model.
Could you correct the material entry for this model?
Thank you,
Anthony Alston
