Click Scolmore's Elucian brand adds new pre-populated consumer units packed with Main Switches, SPDs, and RCDs to streamline electrical installations.
Click Scolmore has expanded its Elucian consumer unit lineup, introducing an array of pre-populated boards designed to cut down on-site assembly time. The expanded range is tailored to accommodate both small-scale domestic upgrades and larger commercial distribution projects.
Each pre-configured unit comes supplied with core circuit protection components directly from the factory. Key inclusions across the lineup feature Main Switches, Surge Protection Devices (SPDs), and RCD protection, helping installers comply efficiently with current wiring regulations.
Pre-populated distribution boards have grown in popularity across the UK electrical sector as contractors look for ways to maximize productivity. By shipping boards pre-fitted with compatible protection devices, manufacturers reduce the time sparks spend sourcing separate modules and configuring internal busbars on job sites.
What does this mean for a UK tradesperson or DIYer actually buying this kit — does it change what they should pay, buy, or watch out for?
For sparks purchasing off the counter at trade merchants, buying a pre-populated Elucian unit generally offers better value and convenience than buying a bare enclosure and populating it with individual Main Switches, SPDs, and RCDs. Buying a pre-configured unit reduces component sourcing errors and ensures full manufacturer compliance with 18th Edition regulations straight out of the box. Electricians should compare board pricing against standalone components at outlets like Screwfix and Toolstation, as off-the-shelf boards save billable labor hours on site, making them a cost-effective choice for both routine consumer unit upgrades and new-build installations.
