We all have thousands of pounds worth of electrical goods in our
homes and on our driveways but what happens if there is a fault
on the electricity network that supplies your property?
A fault on the electricity network could lead to,
• Overheating of your electrical installation and appliances
• Premature equipment failure
• Serious damage or destruction of appliances
• Potential fire hazard
• Danger of electrocution
Introducing the Guardian SP, a revolution in electrical safety!
The Guardian SP is simply installed next to your existing consumer unit (fuse board) helping to
assist in preventing the risk of faults that can occur on the suppliers’ network from entering your
property via your main incoming grid supply.
Helping to protect, you, your home, and your electrical appliances.

Protection explained…
OPEN Neutral protection is commonly used for protection against electric shock on Electric Vehicle
charge point installations, and is designed to protect the user during a dangerous break in the PEN
(Protective Earthed Neutral) conductor on the suppliers network. However, the danger is not limited to
just PEN conductors and electric vehicle charge point installations.
Bad connections or breakages in the supply Neutral conductor in the three phase electricity supply
upstream of your electrical installation can cause another type of fault, known as Power Frequency
Overvoltage.
These excessive voltages may lead to the premature aging or even destruction of equipment, increasing
electrical consumption, creating a potential fire risk in many given situations including within domestic
dwelling homes. The “Guardian SP” is now available to assist in preventing such risks/hazards from
entering your home via your main incoming grid supply.
Surge Protection provides protection against transient over voltages on the supply network.
These can be from lightning strikes on overhead power and telephone lines, or man-made.
During a surge, the voltage increases and will surge through the electrical installation, heating up the
wiring which can cause fires or damage to equipment.
Man-made transient voltages are rising in domestic installations due to the increase in new technologies
such as, EV Charge Points, Air and Ground Source Heating, speed controlled motors in washing machines,
fridge, and freezer motors, etc.
Surge protection prevents these excessive voltages from entering the electrical installation by diverting
them through the connected earth cables.
Providing protection to the electrical installation and equipment connected to it such as electric vehicles,
computers, TVs, smoke detectors, fire alarms, burglar alarms, and heating controls.
EV ready connection, with the ban on sales of new petrol and diesel cars fast approaching it is inevitable
that we all will be driving electric vehicles and be looking to have an EV charge point installed in our
homes.
The Guardian SP has a built in double pole connection point which will help simplify the future installation
of an EV charge point installation potentially saving you expense of future upgrade to your existing con-
sumer unit.
If you are lucky enough to already own an EV charge point, the Guardian SP will help protect it from potential faults on the supply network.
