I remember the name and products of MEM over many years , sold quite a bit of it also working for electrical wholesalers for nearly forty three years . The only bad taste I have with MEM is with takeovers happening over the years the one time great company that was resident at Aston Lane for umpteen years namely BIll Switchgear both companies ended up in the Delta group if memory serves right and then into the Eaton Group. The name Bill Switchgear now in Gt Britain was only available for spares and as I understood it Bill was then totally geared for export, walk past any old style building some years ago and you would see one of their fire switches outside on the wall, walk past any cast or aluminium lampost and it was a Bill street lighting cut out fixed in the base , so one Birmingham company survives while another raps up for this country Bills reps were great men you could speak to , Mem reps to me seemed aloof as though they wanted to hide. This was a memory of MEM and a tribute to Bill Switchgear RIP
