Why Choose the ABB EPH-S60008 Protecta Home 8-Way Consumer Unit?
The ABB EPH-S60008 is a compact and reliable 8-way, 63 A main switch consumer unit designed for safe and organised electrical distribution in domestic and residential installations. Featuring a factory-fitted 63 A switch disconnector, this consumer unit provides convenient isolation of the incoming electrical supply while accommodating compatible modular circuit protection devices. As part of the established ABB Protecta Home series, it offers electricians and electrical contractors a practical solution for installations requiring multiple independently protected circuits.
The EPH-S60008 features a main switch configuration, providing flexibility when selecting outgoing circuit protection. Its eight outgoing ways can accommodate suitable miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) or residual current circuit breakers with overcurrent protection (RCBOs), depending on the electrical installation design and manufacturer compatibility requirements. The integrated main switch provides a central isolation point, while the supplied shrouded busbar, earth bar and neutral bar support straightforward circuit connections and organised installation.
With a 63 A rated main switch and eight outgoing ways, the EPH-S60008 is suitable for smaller domestic distribution systems, residential extensions and electrical refurbishment projects. Its durable RAL 7035 grey steel enclosure provides robust housing for electrical distribution components. Measuring 250 × 270 × 105 mm (H × W × D), the consumer unit offers a practical combination of circuit capacity and compact wall-mounted installation.

Reliable Electrical Isolation and Distribution for Domestic Installations
Main switch consumer units such as the ABB EPH-S60008 Protecta Home provide a central distribution point for electrical circuits within residential properties. The integrated 63 A switch disconnector enables the outgoing circuits to be isolated from the incoming electrical supply, supporting maintenance and servicing when appropriate safe isolation procedures are followed. The eight outgoing ways provide space for compatible circuit protection devices selected according to the electrical installation requirements.
Unlike split-load consumer units supplied with factory-fitted RCCBs, the EPH-S60008 uses a main switch-only incomer arrangement. The main switch provides isolation but does not itself provide residual current, overload or short-circuit protection. These protective functions must be provided by appropriately selected devices. Compatible RCBOs can provide residual current protection together with overload and short-circuit protection for individual circuits, while MCBs provide overcurrent protection where the necessary residual current protection is provided separately.
The ABB Protecta Home range combines durable steel enclosures with practical installation features for residential electrical distribution. The EPH-S60008 is supplied with a factory-fitted switch disconnector, shrouded busbar, earth bar and neutral bar, helping electricians organise outgoing circuit connections. Its eight-way arrangement offers flexibility for installations requiring several circuits without the space requirements of a larger consumer unit. Installation, circuit design and protective device selection must be carried out by a competent electrician in accordance with applicable electrical installation regulations, including BS 7671.
Typical Applications
- Domestic electrical distribution in houses and residential properties.
- Small residential installations requiring an 8-way consumer unit.
