The WPRC32CSP/8 is an 8 way IP65 plastic enclosure fitted with a 32A C Curve Type A RCBO and integrated Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD). Designed for EV charge points, heat pumps, and renewable installs, it provides overload, short-circuit, earth leakage, and surge protection in one weatherproof enclosure.
With a 32A rating and C curve tripping characteristic, this unit is suited to EV chargers with higher inrush currents, heat pump circuits, or PV inverters where B curve devices may nuisance trip. The pre-fitted Type A RCBO detects smooth DC leakage up to 6mA, ensuring compliance with 18th Edition Amendment 2.
Installer Tip: Use the C Curve variant when installing EV chargers, heat pumps, or solar inverters that can cause high start-up currents. It helps avoid nuisance tripping compared with B Curve devices.
Key Features
- 32A C Curve Type A RCBO – handles higher inrush currents while providing earth leakage protection
- Factory-fitted Type 2 SPD – 20kA/40kA transient surge protection
- 8 way IP65-rated plastic enclosure – weatherproof and dust-tight with hinged cover
- Pre-assembled and UK stocked – ready to fit with minimal on-site work
- Complies with BS EN 61009 and BS EN 61439-3

Why choose a C Curve RCBO?
C Curve devices allow for higher inrush currents from EV chargers, heat pumps, or inverter-driven loads, reducing the chance of nuisance tripping compared with B Curve options.
Does this enclosure come pre-assembled?
Yes, it is fully pre-built with the 32A C Curve RCBO and Type 2 SPD fitted, reducing on-site install time.
Is surge protection included as standard?
Yes, the unit includes a factory-fitted Type 2 SPD (20kA/40kA) for transient overvoltage protection. For larger three-phase installs, view our 3 Phase SPD units.
Can this be installed outdoors?
Yes. The IP65-rated enclosure ensures weatherproofing for external EV and renewable installations.
