Hi, just wondered if anybody is using them and opinions...
I have used MK consumer units before because I felt MK was a good brand, but I've started coming to the realisation they aren't that great..
So was gonna try a Hager one, when I was looking at them... I came across the fact they do a surge protection kit now for their consumer units.. Even a video on YouTube by hageruk.
In 17th edition Amendment 1 it states a risk assessment should be carried out, and if the risk assessment deems it necessary a surge protection device should be fitted.. Looks like that was one of the changes in amendment 1
But when I looked into that hager kit, not only can I not find anywhere that stocks them.. In fact only CEF even list them on their site. But they carry a hefty £200 price tag for the kit from what I can assertain.
With ever increasing amount of electronic devices in our homes, laptops, pcs, flat screen tvs, games consoles, sky/virgin boxes... DVD/blu-ray players, hifi equipment.. Potentially added up to thousands... Is it worth taking the risk not having a surge protection device? Does saving your equipment justify the £200 price tag?
