Kernspoke, a BS88 Parts Lookup That Shows Its Working
An evidence-backed lookup for industrial part identities, specifications, and cross-references.
Field notes
Kernspoke organizes a BS88 reference set around traceability rather than broad catalog coverage. Its stated workflow keeps original markings visible while separating normalized identity, known specifications, product status, and relationship evidence. The homepage reports 39 curated records and 19 relationships, with sample Mersen identifiers available as public demonstrations. Cross-references include classifications, rationale, differences, and source locators, while the site cautions that a source-listed relationship is not necessarily a tested replacement.
