Residential Sprinkler Pump Protection

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
The British Standard for domestic sprinklers stipulates where a pump is required to boost the water pressure circuit breakers are not to be used for protection. On commercial installations we would have previously used a lockable red enclosure with main switch and MCB. Does anyone have any ideas on suitable solutions for the domestic sprinkler scenarios using a cartridge fuse or similar?

    Just out of curiosity, why are fuses preferred over circuit breakers?


    I assume because it is much easier to switch off an MCB (accidentally even) than to remove a fuse.
