Power consumption limiter FF OM-2, 16A, adjustable 200–2000 W, for surface mounting

FF OM-2 is a surface-mounted power consumption limiter designed to control and cap electrical load in installations up to 16 A. With an adjustable power range from 200 to 2000 W, this device monitors the total consumption of connected appliances and reduces or disconnects nonessential loads to prevent circuit overloads and nuisance tripping. The compact surface-mount enclosure allows installation on walls or inside shallow service cabinets in residential and light commercial environments.

Advantages

The FF OM-2 provides adjustable power limiting in a single compact unit, enabling precise control of maximum allowed consumption between 200 and 2000 W. Its 16 A current rating supports most household circuits and small commercial applications, reducing the risk of blown fuses or tripped breakers when multiple appliances operate simultaneously. Surface-mount design simplifies installation without the need for deep back boxes, and the device's adjustment capability allows tailoring to local supply limits or user requirements.

Suitable for

• Homes where several high-power appliances are used on the same circuit
• Small offices or retail spaces with limited supply capacity
• Rental properties or holiday homes where consumption control is needed
• Temporary installations or workshops preventing nuisance tripping

Key specifications

• Rated current: 16 A
• Adjustable power limit: 200–2000 W
• Mounting type: surface-mounted enclosure
• Application: single-phase AC circuits typical for residential and light commercial use
• Function: monitors and limits total load, disconnects or reduces nonessential loads to prevent overload

How to use

Install the FF OM-2 in an accessible location on a suitable flat surface and connect it in series with the load circuit according to local wiring rules and safety standards. Set the desired maximum power limit within the 200–2000 W range using the adjustment control. After commissioning, the device continuously monitors consumption and intervenes automatically when total load approaches or exceeds the set value. Regularly check connections and the adjustment setting as part of routine electrical maintenance.

Usage recommendations

Use the FF OM-2 where preventing circuit overloads is required and when selective limiting of noncritical appliances is acceptable. Confirm compatibility with the installed circuit protection and ensure installation by a qualified electrician. Avoid setting the limit below the minimum power requirement of permanently connected essential equipment.
