Schneider Electric AvatarOn 13A Fused Connection Unit (commonly known as a "FUSE switch") features a built-in fuse for overload protection, specifically designed for appliances that require fuse protection such as bathroom exhaust fans and duct heaters. This is a genuine Schneider Electric Hong Kong product, available at LINKO Shop for HK$125.
Product Introduction
In Hong Kong residential electrical systems, appliances like bathroom exhaust fans and duct heaters (bathroom heaters) typically require connection through a Fused Connection Unit to ensure the fuse disconnects the circuit immediately during an overload, providing protection. The Schneider Electric AvatarOn 13A Fused Connection Unit is designed exactly for this purpose: its built-in fuse automatically breaks the circuit during an overload, protecting both the appliance and your home's electrical safety. As part of the AvatarOn series, it features an 87×87mm frameless design, allowing for a uniform style when combined with other switches and sockets in the series, making it a perfect upgrade for home renovations.
Key Features
The built-in fuse is the core of this product: it automatically disconnects the circuit when an appliance overloads, providing protection for devices like exhaust fans and bathroom duct heaters. Users can choose a version with an LED indicator, which lights up when powered (ON) to provide an instant status check, making it especially suitable for bathrooms where you want to quickly see if an exhaust fan is running. It is available in four faceplate colors—Soft White, Rose Gold, Dark Gray, and Wood—to complement different interior design styles.
