Fusebox consumers units

[TJC1]

Has anyone used the brand Fusebox before, how do people rate it as I’m just looking at there main switch spd board with RCBOs

We always use Hager! But just shopping around...

 

[SJD]

Yes, I've installed several of the all-RCBO boards including the SPD, from the 6 way to the 20 way versions.

One of the main criteria was a reasonable cost RCBO, and no trailing earth leads from the RCBOs to make the board look like a bowl of spaghetti.

 

[Dave OCD]

I've fitted quite a few too, I'd say they're very good value and decent quality.
Here's one I did a couple of months ago.

Even after all these years I can't make my boards look that neat - hats off to you

If there was an award I‘d give it to Dave.

Another vote for Fusebox here, used quite a few of them in past 4 to 5 months, decent quality overall, and the price is extremely keen compared to Hager, like how the SPD comes with its own wires or connected in some boards. Whereas any others I've used you need to add your own wiring to connect them.

A few of the vloggers have been using them with no adverse comments.

That's a very good price indeed! Well worth a go based on price and the positive reviews.

That one seems well priced compared to the others on ebay, CEW did this board with a factory wired SPD for just under £138 with 60 day terms.

 

[Dustydazzler]

Never fitted one , but just on price they beat all competition hands down...

 

[richy3333]

DSS electrical on the tube is now saying they are the worst boards he's ever fitted. Worse than BG - that takes some beating!

Have to say I've been looking at them though given the price. Been given good prices by YESSS

Have you a link to the video?

I have fitted loads of BG before and would personally rate the Fusebox a shed load better than BG, I really can't justify paying double the price for an Rcbo and SPD just because it says Hager on it. I'd rather have the price difference in my bank account than Hagers lol

I wouldn't listen to that guys comments, no facts or reasons given, just a throwaway comment that they are poo, without justifying it with any issues he found.

Quite often when I've heard other sparks complain about certain materials it's down to themselves and not the actual item they are complaining about.

The worst consumer units I've ever used have to be ESR or LVE.

Also don’t forget many of these YouTube celeb sparks are sponsored by certain manufacturers
