The Torque Up Xmas Special is now live and this year we focused on a technical topic affecting installers across the UK.
SPDs being failed during verification because they have no dedicated overcurrent protective device.
This is not about blame. This is about clarity.
⚫️ The SPD thermal disconnector is a failsafe
🟢 It is not an overcurrent protective device
⚫️ A service fuse is not considered dedicated protection
🟢 Installers need protection that is testable and compliant under BS 7671
The trade is asking the same question
If boards arrive with SPDs sitting directly on the busbar, why is the installer the one facing the failure
