INTRODUCING PROTEGO
9th September 2023
This new range, marketed under the name ‘Protego’, consisting of 8 distinct lines under one main product group, is the result of a customer-centric approach, with a focus on addressing the needs and preferences of wholesalers and installers alike.
As a company that values its customers’ feedback, Niglon actively sought insights from existing board users, installers, and wholesalers to understand their requirements better. Armed with this valuable information, Niglon’s product team set out to create a Consumer Unit Range that not only meets industry standards but also offers a host of features aimed at enhancing user experience and convenience.
“We believe in listening to our customers and continuously improving our offerings based on their feedback,” said Oliver Hinley, the Operations Director at Niglon. “The development of the new Consumer Unit Range is a testament to our commitment to providing the best solutions for our valued wholesalers and installers. We are dedicated to offering more options, improved safety features, and ease of installation to meet the evolving demands of the electrical industry.”

The new consumer units feature non-combustible enclosures to minimize fire risks, providing peace of mind for both users and installers. All boards are BS7671 (18th Edition) compliant, and third party tested to BS EN61439-3 SEMKO Certification.
Knockouts: The consumer unit range incorporates precision knockouts for effortless wiring, saving valuable time during installation. This feature ensures that wholesalers and installers can work efficiently, meeting tight project deadlines without compromising on quality.
