Consumer Units with SPD — Surge Protection Fuse Boards

RS Electrical Supplies stocks a range of consumer units with integrated surge protection devices (SPD), as required under BS 7671 18th Edition Amendment 2. SPD-fitted consumer units provide essential protection against voltage transients and lightning-induced surges, safeguarding connected appliances and electrical systems.

Why Choose a Consumer Unit with Built-In SPD?

Since the introduction of Amendment 2 to the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, surge protection is now a mandatory consideration for most new domestic and commercial installations. Our range of SPD consumer units combines a compliant fuse board with a factory-fitted Type 2 SPD, simplifying installation and ensuring full regulatory compliance from the outset. Available in main switch, split load, and high integrity configurations.
