GripLoc Consumer Unit Kits: The Definitive Solution for Amendment 3 Compliance

At Remora Electrical, we have built over 50 years of electrical industry expertise into providing installers and specifiers with absolute reliability, efficiency, and confidence on-site. Following the regulations introduced in Amendment 3 to the BS 7671 IET Wiring Regulations, the electricity industry faced fundamental changes governing domestic Consumer Units.

Regulation 421.1.201 explicitly calls for enhanced fire safety protection, stipulating that domestic enclosures must be manufactured from a non-combustible material to contain any potential fire within the enclosure and minimise the risk of flames escaping.

To address the crucial issue of cable entry into these metal enclosures, Remora continues to offer a complete, high-performance solution: the Remora GripLoc® Consumer Unit range. Engineered to ensure the absolute integrity of the enclosure, these kits create a secure fire barrier while providing excellent cable retention, premium strain relief, and IP68 ingress protection.
 

Unmatched Versatility: Zero-Halogen Nylon or Metal Bodies

Available in both Zero-Halogen Plastic (Nylon PA66 / UL94 V2) and Metal (Nickel Plated Brass BS 2874 CZ121 Pb3), our unique interchangeable multi-hole seals offer maximum versatility with minimum fuss. Specially designed to fit into compact M20, M25, and M32 glands, they ensure maximum compatibility with modern metal enclosure consumer units.

Our specialised, comprehensive configurations are tailored exactly to your installation requirements:

• Consumer Unit Flat Form Kits (M20 & M25): Designed for precision sealing around twin and earth cables. Available with multiple insert configurations ranging from single or double entries for 1.0mm² up to 16mm² Flat Form cable.
   
• Consumer Unit Meter Tail Kits (Compact M32): Specifically engineered for main consumer unit feed cables, our M32 Meter Tail Kits provide a single entry point for incoming tails. This innovative single-entry design is critical as it actively prevents eddy currents from building up across the metal enclosure. A blanking plug is also included as standard if an earth cable is not required. These kits are available in two main configurations to suit your requirements:
• MTK3/16 (M32): Suitable for 2 X 16mm²  tails + 1 X 10mm²  earth.
• MTK3/25 (M32): Suitable for 2 X 25mm²  tails + 1 X 16mm²  earth.

Three-Phase Cable Gland Kits (Compact M40): For larger multi-phase installations, we offer a dedicated, high-capacity three-phase gland. Housed in a highly compact M40 thread size, this configuration eliminates the need for oversized hole cutters while providing a flawless seal for 

PTK5/25 (M40): Suitable for 4 X 25mm²  tails + 1 X 16mm²  earth.
