Description
The WMKB240CSP is a compact 4 way metal enclosure pre-fitted with a 40A C Curve MCB and Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD). It’s designed for EV charger supplies, heat pump circuits, and renewable installs where higher inrush currents are expected. Built in a robust steel housing, it delivers overload protection and surge defence in a single unit.
With a 40A rating and C curve tripping characteristic, this model is suited to light commercial EV bays, multi-charger installs, and inverter-driven systems such as PV arrays and heat pumps. The factory-fitted Type 2 SPD ensures compliance with 18th Edition Amendment 2 surge protection requirements.
Installer Tip: Choose the C Curve variant when installing equipment with high start-up currents (e.g. EV chargers, motors, or inverter-driven heat pumps). It reduces the risk of nuisance tripping compared with B Curve breakers.

FAQs
Why choose the C Curve version?
C Curve breakers handle higher inrush currents, making them the right choice for EV chargers, motors, and inverter-driven systems where B Curve MCBs may nuisance trip.
Does this unit provide earth leakage protection?
No. It includes MCB + SPD only. If earth leakage protection is required, pair it with an upstream RCBO or specify an RCBO unit.
Is this suitable for EV installations?
Yes. The 40A rating with C Curve tripping makes it ideal for EV-ready supplies and light commercial installs. It’s fully compliant with surge protection requirements.
What’s the delivery time?
Allow 3 working days for build time. After dispatch, next-day delivery applies to UK mainland orders over £30.
