Why Choose the ABB EPH-S10002 Protecta Home 2-Way 100A Main Switch Consumer Unit?
The ABB EPH-S10002 (ABB order code 1TVC151800S3032) is a compact 2-way, 100 A main switch consumer unit from ABB's Protecta Home range. Designed for low-voltage electrical distribution, this steel consumer unit combines a factory-fitted 100 A switch disconnector with two outgoing ways, providing a practical solution for installations requiring a small, dedicated electrical distribution assembly.
Unlike an empty modular enclosure, the EPH-S10002 is supplied as a main switch consumer unit assembly. ABB specifies that its Protecta Home steel consumer units come complete with a shrouded busbar, neutral bar, earth bar and installation instructions, together with the factory-fitted incoming device appropriate to the selected model. For the EPH-S10002, this is a 100 A main switch disconnector.
The unit has nominal dimensions of 250 × 190 × 105 mm (H × W × D), making it one of the most compact configurations in ABB's Protecta Home main switch consumer unit family. Its RAL 7035 grey steel enclosure provides a professional appearance suitable for appropriately selected indoor electrical installation locations.
With two outgoing ways and a 100 A incoming isolation switch, the ABB EPH-S10002 is particularly useful where a small number of circuits require a dedicated distribution point. The outgoing circuit protective devices must be selected separately to suit the electrical design and ABB's approved assembly requirements.

Compact Two-Way Electrical Distribution with 100A Incoming Isolation
The ABB EPH-S10002 Protecta Home consumer unit is designed for installations where a small number of outgoing circuits require a dedicated distribution assembly. Its two-way configuration is suitable for applications where the circuit schedule can be accommodated within the available positions and the selected devices meet ABB's compatibility requirements.
The factory-fitted 100 A switch disconnector provides a means of isolating the incoming supply to the consumer unit. It is important to distinguish this isolation function from circuit protection: a main switch does not independently provide overload, short-circuit or residual current protection.
The 100 A rating refers to the incoming main switch. It does not establish the permissible current of every outgoing circuit or override the requirements for supply capacity, conductor sizing, protective device selection and thermal performance. The complete installation must be assessed as a coordinated electrical system.
ABB specifies that its Protecta Home steel consumer units are supplied with a shrouded busbar, neutral bar and earth bar. These components provide the basis for an organised internal distribution arrangement, helping installers connect the incoming supply and outgoing circuits according to the approved assembly design.
The nominal enclosure dimensions of 250 × 190 × 105 mm make the EPH-S10002 suitable for projects where mounting space is limited. The compact enclosure size should be considered alongside the required cable entry positions, conductor bending space, device accessibility and any surrounding installation clearances.
The EPH-S10002 is a main switch consumer unit, not a factory-fitted RCCB model. Where residual current protection is required, the electrical design must incorporate suitable devices such as compatible RCBOs or an appropriate RCD arrangement. The selected protective devices must fit the available outgoing ways and comply with the manufacturer's assembly instructions.
For installations requiring additional outgoing circuits, ABB offers larger Protecta Home main switch consumer units, including four-, eight-, ten-, twelve-, sixteen-, twenty- and twenty-two-way variants. The enclosure size should be selected according to the planned circuit requirements rather than relying on the incoming main switch rating alone.
Installation, inspection and commissioning should be undertaken by a competent electrical professional in accordance with ABB's instructions, BS 7671 and the standards applicable to the completed assembly. Device compatibility, earthing arrangements, fault protection, circuit identification and electrical test results must all be confirmed before the installation is put into service.
