FuseBox

Fusebox is a leading brand of electrical consumer units and distribution boards that are manufactured to the highest standards of quality. These consumer units and distribution boards provide reliable and safe electrical connections for homes, offices, and other buildings.

FuseBox Consumer Units

Fusebox consumer units are engineered to protect against overloads, short circuits, and other electrical faults. This ensures the safety of the building's occupants and the electrical equipment connected to them. Fusebox by CP (Electric) Ltd products are compliant with British Standards and are certified to meet all relevant safety requirements

Fusebox consumer units are an essential component in any building's electrical system. They are the central point where the incoming electrical supply is distributed to different circuits throughout the building. These points include lights, sockets, and appliances.

A fusebox consumer unit typically consists of a metal box that contains several fuses or miniature circuit breakers (MCBs). The circuit breakers protect the circuits against overloading or short-circuiting. In the event of a fault, the fuse or MCB will trip and cut off the electrical supply to that circuit. This mechanism prevents damage or hazards.

Fusebox consumer units are available in different sizes and configurations. They can also be customized with different types of MCBs. These include single-pole, double-pole, or triple-pole, depending on the type of circuits that need to be protected.

FuseBox MCB (Miniature Circuit Breakers)

FuseBox MCBs are designed to trip automatically in the event of an overcurrent fault. This cuts off the electrical supply to the circuit and preventing any damage or hazards. They are available in various current ratings and trip sensitivities to suit different applications and electrical loads.

FuseBox MCBs can be easily installed in FuseBox consumer units. They are designed to provide fast tripping times to ensure quick isolation of any faults. They also come with various features, such as test buttons and LED indicators, to ensure proper functionality and safety.

One of the significant advantages of FuseBox MCBs is their ability to provide individual circuit protection. This allows for easy identification and isolation of faults. This feature is especially beneficial in larger buildings where multiple circuits are in use.

Another advantage of FuseBox MCBs is their ability to handle high inrush currents, which are common in electrical systems during startup. This feature helps to prevent false tripping of the MCB, ensuring that the electrical supply is not interrupted without cause.

FuseBox RCD (Residual Current Device)

FuseBox RCDs are designed to trip automatically in the event of a residual current fault. Again the RCB similar to MCBs cut off the electrical supply to the circuit and preventing any damage or hazards. They are available in various current ratings and trip sensitivities to suit different applications and electrical loads.

Easily fitted, FuseBox RCDs are designed to provide fast tripping times to ensure quick isolation of any faults. They also come with various features, such as test buttons and LED indicators, to ensure proper functionality and safety.

One of the significant advantages of FuseBox RCDs is their ability to provide protection against electric shock. In the event of a fault, the RCD will trip and disconnect the electrical supply, preventing any potential electric shock hazards.

FuseBox RCDs provide additional protection to electrical equipment, such as computers and sensitive electronics, against voltage surges and transients.

FuseBox RCDs also have the ability to provide individual circuit protection, allowing for easy identification and isolation of faults. This feature is especially beneficial in larger buildings where multiple circuits are in use.

FuseBox SPD (Surge Protection Device)

FuseBox SPDs are designed to limit the voltage that enters the electrical system. The device diverts the excess voltage to the earth reducing the voltage that reaches the electrical system. This is to protect it from any potential damage and hazards.

FuseBox SPDs are available in various types and ratings to suit different applications and electrical loads. Easy to install, FuseBox consumer units and are designed to provide fast response times in the event of a surge.

One of the significant advantages of FuseBox SPDs is their ability to extend the lifespan of electrical equipment. The SPD helps to reduce the wear and tear on electrical equipment preventing voltage spikes and surges. This ensures its longevity and reliability.

Another benefit of FuseBox SPDs is their ability to protect against fire hazards caused by electrical surges. Electrical surges can cause heat buildup and potential fires, but with the protection provided by SPDs, these hazards can be prevented.

FuseBox RCBO (Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overload Protection)

FuseBox RCBO is a type of circuit breaker that combines the functions of both an MCB and an RCD. It provides protection against both overcurrent and earth fault currents, making it an essential safety feature in any building's electrical system.

FuseBox RCBOs are designed to automatically trip in the event of a fault, such as an overload or a ground fault. The RCBO measures the current flowing through the circuit and compares it with the current returning through the neutral wire. If there is a difference in the current flow, indicating a ground fault, the RCBO will trip. This will cut off the electrical supply to the circuit and prevent overloads or potential fires.

One of the significant advantages of FuseBox RCBOs is their ability to provide individual circuit protection. The RCBOs allow for easy identification and isolation of faults. This feature is especially beneficial in larger buildings where multiple circuits are in use.

FuseBox AFDD (Arc Fault Detection Device)

FuseBox AFDDs are designed to detect and isolate arc faults before they can cause any damage or hazards. The device combines the functions of an MCB, an RCD, and an arc fault detector. The device provides comprehensive protection against various electrical faults.

FuseBox AFDDs are capable of detecting different types of arc faults, including parallel arcing, series arcing, and ground faults. The device measures the electrical waveforms and compares them to known arc patterns. By doing so this allows it to detect the difference between normal electrical activity and dangerous arc faults.

In the event of an arc fault, the FuseBox AFDD will trip and cut off the electrical supply to the circuit. This prevents any further damage or hazards. The device can be installed in FuseBox consumer units and is available in different current ratings. They are designed to suit different applications and electrical loads.

One of the significant advantages of AFDDs is their ability to detect arc faults before they can cause any damage. This feature is beneficial in buildings with a high electrical load, where arc faults are more likely to occur.
