The A-Type RCBO EV Kit is a 2-way enclosure pre-fitted with your choice of Type A high immunity RCBO. Designed specifically for EV charger supplies, it provides overload, short-circuit, and earth leakage protection with 30mA AC + 6mA DC detection to meet 18th Edition Amendment 2 requirements.
This unit combines robust circuit protection with a dual-switch action that clearly indicates the type of fault detected. It is compact, compliant, and ready for direct use in domestic and light commercial EV installations.
Available in multiple variants:
- 6A, 10A, 16A, 20A, 25A, 32A, 40A ratings
- B or C curve options
- High immunity design for reduced nuisance tripping
Every kit is supplied in a 2-way enclosure with a hinged cover, making it quick to install and inspection-ready. Suitable for standalone EV supplies or retrofit upgrades where a dedicated RCBO is required.
- Type A RCBO – 30mA AC + 6mA DC leakage detection
- Switched live and neutral – isolates both conductors
- High immunity – stable performance with EV chargers
- Compact 2-way enclosure – ready for quick fit-outs
- Complies with BS EN 61009-1 and 18th Edition EV requirements
Is this kit compliant for EV charger installs?
Yes. It includes a Type A RCBO with 30mA AC + 6mA DC detection, as required under 18th Edition Amendment 2 for EV circuits.
Which RCBO ratings are available?
You can choose from 6A, 10A, 16A, 20A, 25A, 32A, or 40A, in either B or C curve. Select the rating that matches your charger or load.
Does this unit protect against both live and neutral faults?
Yes. The switched neutral design ensures full isolation of both conductors under fault conditions.
Can this be used for solar PV as well as EV?
Yes. The bi-directional Type A RCBO makes it suitable for both EV and PV applications.
