Are you taking advantage of retrofit opportunities?
The SPD1 provides a simple, cost-effective retrofit solution.
Posted on: July 23rd 2026 • Posted in: Uncategorized
Before the regulations changed in 2018 most domestic properties did not have surge protection, leaving expensive equipment unprotected and vulnerable to surges.
More homeowners are investing in:
🚘EV chargers
☀️Solar PV systems
🔋Battery storage
♨️Heat pumps
🏠 Smart home technology
The question is…
What solution are you providing your electrical contractors?
Replacing a consumer unit simply to add surge protection can be an unnecessary expense when the existing board is in good condition. The Surge Protection Devices Ltd, SPD1 provides a simple, cost-effective retrofit solution.
If the existing consumer unit has one spare way:
Simply install the SPD1 using an MCB within the existing consumer unit. No need to replace the board.
If there isn’t a spare way:
Install the SPD1 alongside the consumer unit in one of our compact metal or insulated (plastic) enclosures, giving contractors a neat, compliant and professional retrofit solution.
Why should wholesalers stock the SPD1
✔️ Creates an additional sales opportunity on upgrade projects
✔️ Saves customers the cost of unnecessary consumer units
✔️ Quick and straightforward installation
✔️ Ideal for retrofit applications
✔️ Suitable for protecting existing installations as electrical systems continue to evolve
