This Lieber 13A Unswitched Fused Spur (FCU) in Brushed Chrome with a black insert is designed for homeowners and electricians seeking reliable appliance protection. Its key benefit is the built-in fuse that safeguards against electrical faults by melting and breaking the circuit. A potential consideration is its unswitched nature, meaning it does not have an on/off toggle.

An FCU is designed to protect a specific appliance from electrical faults. It contains a fuse that will blow if the appliance draws too much current, safely disconnecting power.
No, this is an unswitched unit. It provides a fused connection point but does not have its own on/off switch. Power to the connected appliance is controlled by a separate wall switch or the appliance's own controls.
You must use a BS 1362 fuse rated at 13A. Using a fuse with a different rating can be dangerous.
Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or damage the finish.
Installation involves mains electricity. If you are not a qualified electrician or are unsure about any part of the process, it is strongly recommended to hire a professional to ensure safe and correct installation.
The unit dimensions are 86mm x 86mm, designed to fit standard UK electrical backboxes.
Check that the fuse inside the unit has blown. If so, replace it with a new 13A fuse of the correct type. Ensure the main power supply is on and correctly wired.
This indicates a persistent fault with the appliance itself or the wiring. Do not replace the fuse repeatedly; consult a qualified electrician to diagnose and repair the appliance or circuit.
Ensure the correct size backbox is used and that it is securely mounted. For screwless plates, ensure the module is correctly seated before clipping the plate on.
Setup: Installation requires basic electrical knowledge and should be performed by a qualified person if you are not experienced. Ensure the main power supply is switched OFF at the consumer unit before commencing any work. The unit connects to the main power circuit and then provides a fused connection point for an appliance. The screwless plate simply clips into place over the pre-installed module.
Compatibility: This unit is designed for standard UK mains electrical systems and fits into an 86mm x 86mm backbox. It is compatible with appliances that require a 13A fused connection.
Care: To clean the brushed chrome finish, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. Ensure the unit remains dry.
