Is the same console from different ships interchangable for different console sets?

To elaborate: The Arbiter, Kurak and Morigu all come with the Console - Universal - Ablative Hazard Shielding which is part of a set for each family of ships.

Would the console from one of these work to complete the set of a different family of ships?

For example: Can I rip the console from an Arbiter and put it on a Mogai together with the Mogai's Ionized Particle Beam to get the 2-piece bonus? Or do I need to specifically use the 'Romulan' version of the Ablative Hazard Shielding Console found on the Morigu to get the Romulan set bonus?

(Most) Sets are universal thus can be mixed console acquisitions and still apply the set bonus. But a few select ones do not.

Your' example is one such set that has different set bonus depending on the consoles origin.(thus needing the Morrigu's console to get the romulan set bonuses as the arbiter's is part of another set).

I double check on the wiki these days before I buy now as I made that error myself and it sucks when that happens, :/
