⚡ WCED Fitted Consumer Unit IP65 – PME + 40A RCBO + Surge Protection

Comprehensive Protection for EV Installations

This all-in-one, pre-wired consumer unit is designed to provide essential safety features for electric vehicle (EV) installations. Encased in a durable plastic IP65 enclosure, it combines PEN Fault Detection, 40A RCBO, and Surge Protection, ensuring compliance with the latest 18th Edition regulations.


🔧 Key Features

  • PEN Fault Detection: Monitors the supply voltage on both 230V and 240V lines. In the event of an under-voltage (<207V) or over-voltage (>253V), the unit isolates Live, Neutral, and Earth conductors within 5 seconds, ensuring safety during fault conditions.

  • 40A RCBO: Provides reliable overcurrent and earth fault protection, with a Type A RCD element offering 30mA sensitivity, suitable for EV charger installations.

  • Surge Protection: Optional Type 2 surge protection device to safeguard sensitive electronics from transient voltage spikes.

  • KWh Meter (Optional): Allows for accurate measurement of energy consumption, aiding in efficient energy management.

  • Load Balancing (Optional): Adjustable relay sensitivity from 20A to 110A, ensuring that the house fuse remains unaffected by the EV charger load.

  • IP65 Enclosure: Weatherproof and robust, suitable for outdoor installations, protecting internal components from dust and water ingress.

  • Compact Design: Dimensions of 300mm x 250mm x 150mm, with 25mm and 32mm circular cable entry knock-outs on top and bottom for flexible installation.
