Reliable Electrical Distribution and Circuit Protection
Consumer units such as the ABB EPH-S60020 provide a central location for electrical isolation and the distribution of power to individual circuits within residential properties. The integrated 63 A main switch isolator allows the incoming electrical supply to be disconnected when required, providing a convenient means of isolation for inspection, maintenance and electrical installation work. Individual outgoing circuits can be equipped with appropriately selected protective devices to provide the required overload, short-circuit and residual current protection.
The ABB Protecta Home series is designed to support practical and organised domestic electrical distribution. The EPH-S60020 features a 20-way main-switch configuration, providing flexibility when arranging circuits for lighting, socket outlets, domestic appliances and other fixed electrical equipment. Its factory-fitted switch disconnector, shrouded busbar and supplied earth and neutral bars help simplify assembly and installation.
Unlike consumer units supplied with integrated RCCBs, the EPH-S60020 uses a main-switch-only configuration. The 63 A isolator provides supply isolation but does not itself provide overload, short-circuit or residual current protection. These functions must be provided by appropriately selected protective devices and the wider electrical installation. Correct circuit design, protective device coordination and compliance with applicable wiring regulations are essential for safe and dependable operation.
Typical Applications
- Residential electrical distribution in houses and domestic properties.
