    Do people use a torque screwdriver to tighten up MCB’s and if so what brand. I had a Wera one and it broke after a handful of uses. £130 from Amazon, refund on the way but would like to replace it. I don’t have any faith in Wera anymore...

    Not a torque screwdriver, but I use a 3/8" torque wrench and the appropriate socket / screwdriver bit. Not suitable for all-day use, but very good for occasional use. It goes town to 4Nm.
