could anyone tell me the difference between the following:
ge series ne c20 and
ge series e c20
just need to see if there is a big difference.

Perhaps it is the short circuit capacity of the MCB.
This has sort of similar coding.
According to their catalog


Short circuit capacity..........Series
3000...................................E90N
4500...................................E90E
6000...................................E90 / E880
10000 .................................E90S / E880S
25000..................................S90 - Selective

could be breaking capacity alright
most c20 would usually be 6 afaik or some even 10ka now
Older breakers were 3

cheers for the replies.can get someone to replace the ne c20 but they can only get an e c20 would that do the same job do ya think?

M cebee

a newer model would usually have a higher BC
If that is the difference you can check the short circuit current at the board
