Installation & Operating Instructions
For PowerBreaker Consumer Units
The PowerBreaker Consumer Unit range consists of 8, 10, 12, 14,16,18, 20 & 22 Way boards,
from Part populated to Dual High Integrity boards. With rear and side cable entry.
IMPORTANT
This product should be installed by a competent person and in
accordance with the current IET Wiring Regulations (BS7671).
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
SAFETY INFORMATION
• The total current supplied by the consumer unit must NOT exceed the rating of
the Main Switch or the incoming supply.
• This consumer unit is suitable for use indoors only and is rated at IP20
• Only PowerBreaker modules (MCB’s, RCCB’s, RCBO’s, SPD’s etc.) should be
installed into these consumer units.
• All unused out-going ways MUST have a blank module fitted.
• Before fitting the front cover, check that ALL terminations are to the correct
torque, including factory made connections.
• The Consumer unit and modules have been type tested to the following
specifications:-
Consumer Units - BS EN61439-3
MCB’s - BS EN60898-1
RCCB’s - BS EN61008-1
RCBO’s - BS EN61009-1
Main Switch - BS EN60947-1
• Ensure all busbar insulation shields are fitted.
• Ambient temperature: PBM range of the MCB’S are calibrated to meet the 30oC calibration
temperature requirements of BS EN60898.
• At other temperatures the following rating factors should be used:
At. 60OC - 0.85 At. 20OC - 1.0 At. 0OC - 1.15
• Adjacent thermal-magnetic MCB’s should not be continuously loaded at or
approaching their nominal rating when mounted in enclosures. If MCB’s are to
be continuously loaded, it is recommended that a factor of 0.6 is applied to its
nominal rating.

INSTALLATION
1. Remove the front cover by unscrewing the two screws.
2. Remove knockouts to facilitate cable entry as required (side & rear entry
knockouts), and insert grommets.
3. Using the built-in sprit level, mount the enclosure base on to the flat wall, using
wall plugs and screws as appropriate.
4. Feed circuit cables through the knockouts as required.
5. Route the meter tails into the enclosure to terminate in the Main Switch.
6. Populate the Consumer Unit with the MCB’s as required, The highest rating
MCB should be positioned closest to the Main Switch or RCCB that feeds
them.
7. Fit the Busbar in to either the Main Switch or RCCB and MCB’s. The Busbar
may need to be cut & shortened to suit the required number of outgoing ways
on the isolator and the RCCB’s. Fit the Busbar insulation shield.
8. Cut, dress and terminate the circuit cables, making sure the Neutral and Earth
conductors are terminated in the corresponding circuit number terminals.
Earth conductors should be appropriately sleeved.
9. Fit the blanking modules to cover any spare modular ways.
10. Attach the circuit identification labels (label kit supplied).
11. Test the Installation: In accordance with the latest edition of the IET Wiring
Regulations (BS 7671). It is important that the RCCB operation times and TEST
button are tested, as well as verification that the Earth loop impedance
requirements are met.
Before fitting the front cover, check the tightness of ALL connections, including
factory made connections.

Test Procedure - RCCB & RCBO
• The RCCB and RCBO (if fitted) MUST be tested regularly as per BS7671
Regulations.
To TEST - Press the Test Button (T) and the switch should flip to the OFF position.
• To reset - PUSH the switch to the ON position.
Resetting the Devices (Trip Switches)
• The ‘Trip Switches’ will operate if a fault has occurred. To reset, PUSH the
switch into the ON position.
• If the fault is still present, the switch will not stay in the ON position. If this
happens, contact a competent person or qualified electrician to inspect
the installation.
