A switched fuse spur is a wall-mounted electrical accessory that provides a fused connection and a switch to isolate a specific appliance from the mains power supply. It includes a neon indicator to show if power is present.
This wall plate is rated for a maximum of 13 Amperes (13A).
Installation involves working with mains electricity. It is strongly recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
It is designed to fit a standard single UK electrical backbox.
Wipe the surface gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or discolor the plastic.
The neon light indicates that the switched spur unit is receiving power from the mains supply. When it is lit, power is available to the connected appliance.
This unit is specifically designed for appliance circuits rated up to 13A and typically includes a fuse. It is not intended for general lighting circuits, which usually use different types of switches.
Ensure the appliance is switched on and the circuit is live. If the issue persists, the neon indicator bulb may need replacement or there could be a wiring fault. Consult a qualified electrician.
Check for any obstructions around the switch. If the stiffness persists, it may indicate an internal issue, and the unit may need replacement. Contact the manufacturer or a qualified electrician.
Immediately turn off the power at the main consumer unit and do not use the appliance. This indicates a serious electrical fault. Contact a qualified electrician for inspection and repair.
Setup:
This unit is designed to fit a standard single UK backbox. Installation involves connecting the mains supply wires to the appropriate terminals and then securing the plate to the backbox. Due to the nature of electrical work, installation should only be performed by a qualified electrician or someone with the appropriate knowledge and tools.
