Eaton latest AFDD solutions provide the highest level of protection whilst saving time on installation

Are your customers ready for BS7671 amendment 2?

Within BS7671, one constant we have seen since the creation of UK installation regulations is a drive towards improved safety through better installation processes and the use of new technology. The DPC for amendment 2 is no exception with the suggested requirement for the use of AFDDs in UK installations, a product specifically designed to offer protection against electrically ignited fires.

Required for the first time in BS7671:2018 Amendment 2 , during the past two years the industry has been increasing its knowledge and experience of this technology. Eaton has a full range of AFDD device and boards to enable designers, specifiers and installers comply with amendment 2 of BS7671 for single-phase AC socket-outlet circuits with a rated current not exceeding 32 A

We have the AFDD solutions for 

  • High Risk Residential Buildings (HRRB)
  • Houses in Multiple Occupancy (HMO)
  • Purpose built student accommodation
  • Care homes

Eaton has brought out a range of addition single and three phase type A and B board to compliment its leading Memshield 3 range. Working with our AFDD+ arc fault detection device offers a comprehensive protective solution against fires triggered by arc faults. It significantly enhances your safety in terms of electrical fires in your home. At the same time, it conveniently removes the need for three separate protective devices. This all-in-one device combines the protective functions of a residual-current circuit breaker, a miniature circuit breaker, and an arc fault detection device to protect against electrical shocks, overcurrent’s, as well as short circuits or arc faults in power cables.
