This is the FuseBox AFSS18 18-Module Surface Spacer Plate – 30mm Stand-Off for Consumer Unit Installations available at SparksDirect.co.uk for the best price.

The FuseBox AFSS18 is a surface stand-off plate / spacer accessory designed to provide tidy and practical mounting for 18 Way (18P) consumer units when flush-mounting isn’t possible. Rather than being a protective electrical device, this component adds essential 30mm of rear clearance between the unit and the wall, creating space for surface cable routing and ensuring cables can enter the consumer unit neatly and safely.

Engineered for professional electrical installations in homes and commercial settings, the AFSS18 makes surface-mounted consumer units look neat and accessible, while helping maintain compliance with wiring regulations by providing better cable access and routing. Its robust construction means it will support the weight of compatible boards and withstand daily use.
