New KCM AFDD – Anticipated Arrival June 2025!
Arc fault detection devices (AFDDs) are becoming increasingly vital in modern electrical systems, driven by the growing emphasis on safety regulations and the need to prevent electrical fires caused by dangerous arc faults. As electrical infrastructures grow more complex and power demands continue to rise, the risks associated with arc faults in residential, commercial, and industrial environments have become a significant concern. Current market trends show a heightened focus on fire prevention and system reliability, fuelled by regulatory frameworks such as the UK’s 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, which emphasise the importance of advanced safety measures like AFDDs.
With the introduction of the KCM AFDD alongside the MEM Classic range, Kempston Controls Manufacturing is set to bridge this gap by offering an easy-to-integrate solution that combines cutting-edge technology with the reliability and legacy of the MEM Classic brand allowing the end user to leave the original MEM MEMSHIELD 2 distribution boards in place whilst upgrading their capability and meeting the everchanging landscape of regulations.
Designed to detect and mitigate arc faults early, the KCM AFDD will reduce the risk of electrical fires, saving lives, protecting property, and ensuring compliance with evolving safety standards.
By addressing the challenges of trust and complexity, Kempston Controls Manufacturing’s AFDD has the potential to accelerate market adoption, enabling contractors and engineers to meet stricter safety requirements without compromising on quality or performance. As a result, the KCM AFDD is poised to play a transformative role in shaping a safer, more resilient electrical industry.
