Description
The WMKB240BSP is a compact 4 way metal enclosure pre-fitted with a 40A B Curve MCB and Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD). Built for EV charger supplies, outbuildings, and small sub-mains, it combines overload protection and surge defence in a durable steel housing.
The 40A B Curve MCB makes this unit suitable for domestic EV installs, general distribution boards, and standard load circuits. With a pre-fitted Type 2 SPD, it ensures compliance with 18th Edition Amendment 2 and gives added resilience against transient overvoltages.
Installer Tip: Use the B Curve model for standard domestic circuits. If you expect higher inrush currents (motors, heat pumps, certain EV chargers), opt for the C Curve variant.

FAQs
Is this enclosure suitable for EV charger installs?
Yes. It is built for EV-ready supplies requiring a 40A breaker and Type 2 SPD. For other sizes, view our EV consumer unit range.
When should I use B Curve vs C Curve?
B Curve MCBs suit domestic/general loads, while C Curve options handle higher inrush currents (e.g. motors, certain EV chargers). Choose based on your application.
Does this unit include earth leakage protection?
No. It includes an MCB + SPD. If RCD protection is required, pair with an upstream RCBO or specify an RCBO version.
How quickly is this supplied?
