S.P.D.s and Populated Consumer Units.

Are new populated consumer units with S.P.D.s fitted designed to mainly protect the sensitive electronic equipment downstream of the S.P.D.s WITHIN THE CONSUMER UNIT? Is that the makers' MAIN intention as R.C.D.s, R.C.B.Os and other sensitive electronic devices can be damaged by Voltage surges, as compared to basic protective devices like wire or cartridge fuses or more basic M.C.B.s?

  • I'm still not convinced of any real need to actually fit these things, and neither is my wholesaler, who is not stocking them.

    A former colleague of mine who is now self-employed, said that his NIC Local Area Engineer told him that he would not expect to see these devices fitted in domestic installations.
