Enhanced Vega
Enhanced Vega consumer units are fitted with a 100A rated RCCB device and an insulated busbar which have been upgraded to allow for connection of an enhanced 16kVA supply.
Enhanced supplies are often used in larger one-off houses, and installations with heat pumps. The fully assembled and wired consumer units are available in two row 26-module, three row 54-module, and four row 72-module versions, for convenient fitting of additional devices.
Ross McCarthy of RMC Electrical demonstrates the ease of installation of the Vega Enhanced consumer unit in a residential property in Crosshaven, Cork.
Since their introduction these new consumer units have been favourably received by electrical contractors…
“A large part of my business is one off domestic dwellings, this type of installation often requires an enhanced ESB supply, meaning the standard 63A rated boards are inadequately rated. Until now there hasn’t been an off the shelf standard product available, resulting in time spent sourcing and assembling the products ourselves. Since the new Hager Vega enhanced supply board became available we have saved a lot of time and have a quality product available from the wholesaler. The fact that it conforms to the EN 61439-3 standard gives me peace of mind that I am installing a quality product”. - Aidan O’Shea, A1 Electrical, Cork.
The enhanced consumer units use the stylish new design Vega enclosures. The shade band, the silver handle, and the sloped face on the door, are some of the distinctive features of this new design.
“Our mission is to model the future, evolving the electrotechnical domain by designing the shapes of tomorrow and setting new trends”.
Internally there are a whole host of innovations including unique rotating fixing slots, cable guides for tidier internal wiring, and removeable top and bottom entry plates with pre-marked entries for tubing or trunking. A range of additional features such as label holders, document clips, and rotatable doors make for a neat and professional finish to the installation.
A wide range of accessories such as plain and transparent doors, key locks, cable entry plates, and terminal supports, are available to meet all installation requirements.
The enhanced consumer units conform to the EN 60670-24 and EN61439-3 standards for domestic distribution boards. Discover the enhanced Vega range here.
