Fusebox consumer units are widely regarded as a reliable and cost-effective solution for domestic electrical installations. Designed to meet 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, they offer strong build quality, compact designs and practical features that make installation quicker and more efficient.

They are particularly popular with electricians due to their generous wiring space, consistent layout and compatibility with a wide range of protective devices, making them suitable for both new installations and upgrades.

Electricpoint offers a wide range of Fusebox consumer units designed to suit different installation requirements, including standard RCBO consumer units, dual RCBO consumer units, EV consumer units and garage consumer units.

Options are also available with integrated surge protection devices (SPDs), helping to protect electrical equipment from voltage spikes. RCBO consumer units provide individual circuit protection for improved safety and fault isolation, while dual RCBO configurations offer a practical balance between performance and cost.

With a variety of sizes and configurations available, Fusebox consumer units can be selected to suit everything from small domestic installations to larger, more complex electrical systems.

Yes. Fusebox consumer units are designed to comply with the latest 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS 7671), including Amendment 2 requirements.

They support modern protection devices such as RCBOs and surge protection devices (SPDs), ensuring installations meet current safety standards and are suitable for modern electrical demands.

Many Fusebox consumer units are designed for use with RCBOs, providing individual protection for each circuit.

This setup improves safety and reliability by ensuring that if a fault occurs, only the affected circuit is disconnected. RCBO consumer units are now widely preferred in modern installations due to their improved fault isolation and reduced disruption.

The size of the consumer unit depends on the number of circuits in the installation and any future expansion requirements.

Common sizes range from smaller boards for basic installations to larger units designed to accommodate additional circuits, surge protection devices and future upgrades. It is generally recommended to choose a board with spare ways to allow for flexibility.

Fusebox consumer units are designed with installers in mind, offering a combination of reliability, ease of installation and value for money.
