Consumer units SquareD CL Classic becomes SquareD CL Protection SquareD CL SquareD consumer units are designed to eliminate the use of back-up fuses. Only MCBs are used. The need to keep spare fuses is therefore not required and the errors in replacing with the wrong fuse rating is also prevented. The consumer unit (metal, square box, original blue color) that everyone familiar with. It's the original and the reference, trusted by all electricians over the last 30 years. It s why we called it "Classic". Only its name has changed.
