Wylex Consumer Unit - 14 Way - Dual Type A RCD - 10 MCBs - 1 Mod SPD

The SPD protects connected electrical equipment from damage caused by sudden, high-voltage surges, such as those from lightning strikes or power grid fluctuations.

This unit has 14 ways, with 10 populated MCBs, 4 blanks, and the SPD. Additional MCBs can be added into the blank spaces as long as the total way count does not exceed 14 and is suitable for the unit's overall capacity and RCD ratings.

It means the unit has two Residual Current Devices (RCDs), and both are Type A. Type A RCDs can detect both AC and pulsating DC residual currents, offering better protection than older Type AC RCDs, especially against modern electronic loads.

Yes, it can be suitable for a garage or outbuilding provided it meets the specific electrical requirements and safety regulations for such an installation, including appropriate cable runs and RCD protection.

Check for faulty appliances connected to the RCD circuits. Test each circuit individually. Ensure correct RCD type and rating are used for the connected load. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician.

Verify the main incoming power supply is live. Check all connections to the main switch and busbars within the unit. Ensure the main switch is in the 'ON' position. Consult an electrician if power supply is confirmed but not reaching the unit.

If the SPD status indicator shows a fault, the SPD may have absorbed a surge and is no longer fully protected. It should be replaced by a qualified electrician.

Ensure the fault that caused the MCB to trip has been resolved. Check if the MCB itself is faulty. If the MCB is damaged or repeatedly trips immediately upon reset, it needs to be replaced by an electrician.
