The Evoges Guardian EGAFDD06B32A30 is an advanced Arc Fault Detection Device (AFDD) with integrated RCBO protection, providing a comprehensive solution for modern electrical installations. Designed for use within Evoges Guardian consumer units, it combines arc fault detection, overload protection, short-circuit protection, and residual current protection in a single device, helping to reduce the risk of electrical fires caused by dangerous arc faults.
With a 32A current rating, 30mA residual current sensitivity, and 6kA breaking capacity, this AFDD RCBO offers enhanced protection for socket circuits, ring finals, and other power circuits commonly found in residential and light commercial environments. The integrated AFDD technology continuously monitors the electrical circuit and can detect potentially hazardous series and parallel arc faults that conventional protective devices may not identify.
Manufactured to BS EN IEC 61009-1 and BS EN IEC 62606 standards, the EGAFDD06B32A30 is designed to meet the latest safety requirements and recommendations within modern electrical installations. It provides electricians and property owners with an additional layer of protection where fire prevention and enhanced electrical safety are a priority.

Who Needs This?
The Evoges Guardian EGAFDD06B32A30 is ideal for electricians, developers, landlords, housing associations, commercial property owners, and homeowners seeking enhanced protection against electrical fires. It is particularly suitable for protecting ring final circuits, socket outlet circuits, and areas where increased fire safety is recommended.
AFDDs are increasingly specified in higher-risk environments such as:
- Residential dwellings
- Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs)
- Student accommodation
- Care homes
- Residential timber-framed buildings
- Sleeping accommodation
- Commercial premises requiring enhanced fire protection
Please note: This AFDD RCBO is designed specifically for use with Evoges Guardian Consumer Units. The consumer unit must be purchased separately.
Who Can Install This?
In the UK, AFDDs and consumer unit protective devices should only be installed by a qualified electrician. Installation must comply with the latest edition of BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations), including inspection, testing, and certification to ensure a safe and compliant electrical installation.
Consumer Units FAQ
What is an AFDD?
An AFDD (Arc Fault Detection Device) is a protective device designed to detect dangerous electrical arc faults that may lead to overheating and electrical fires. When an arc fault is detected, the device automatically disconnects the circuit.
How is an AFDD different from an RCBO?
An RCBO protects against overloads, short circuits, and earth leakage faults. An AFDD RCBO provides all of these protections while also detecting potentially dangerous arc faults that traditional devices may not identify.
Where are AFDDs commonly installed?
AFDDs are commonly installed on socket circuits, ring final circuits, and in buildings where enhanced fire protection is recommended, such as homes, HMOs, care facilities, student accommodation, and timber-framed buildings.
Is this AFDD compatible with all consumer units?
No. The Evoges Guardian EGAFDD06B32A30 has been specifically designed for use within Evoges Guardian Consumer Units and should only be installed in compatible boards.
