Maintenance Savings on Desks

Reduce maintenance costs with smart fuse technology

Current Problem:
Traditional desk plug sockets are a hidden source of recurring operational costs. Every time a fuse blows:

An occupant reports the issue, often to IT first, triggering unnecessary cross-team involvement.
IT sends a technician (£120).
Maintenance is dispatched to diagnose the issue again (£120).
If a fuse replacement is required, another visit is needed (£120).
Root cause investigation may require additional effort.

Total Cost per Blown Fuse: £360

And it happens more often than you think...
From our building data, 6 fuses blow per 100 sockets per year — leading to £2,160 in annual cost per 100 sockets, or £21.60 per socket per year.

measurable.energy’s digital resettable fuses

Our desk unit uses digital fuse technology that:

Detects overloads (e.g. >5A for 30s),
Cuts power automatically to protect equipment,
Allows remote diagnosis and reset, without a single physical call-out.
