The WME10/HP40R25 10 Way Heat Pump Consumer Unit is a pre-wired heat pump protection board for inverter-driven heat pump systems. It is supplied with Type B HP RCD protection, Type 2 surge protection, a 25A MCB, 3 x 16A RCBOs and a 100A main switch.
It comes pre-fitted with a 40A Type B RCD, a 25A MCB, 3 x 16A RCBO's, 100A Main Switch and a 2-pole Type 2 SPD, giving full compliance with BS 7671:2018+A2:2022. This ensures both surge protection and correct RCD specification for renewable installs.
Installer Note: Whitecliffe’s heat pump range uses Type B HP RCD protection for inverter-driven heat pump systems where smooth DC and high-frequency residual currents may be present. Always confirm final protective device requirements against the heat pump manufacturer’s specification.

Is this board compliant for heat pump installs under the 18th Edition?
Yes. It includes a Type B RCD and a Type 2 SPD, both required for inverter-driven loads such as heat pumps. For standalone installs, see our Heat Pump RCD.
What’s the difference between the 8-way and 12-way versions?
The devices supplied are the same. The 12-way simply provides more DIN space for adding future RCBOs or MCBs.
Can I add RCBOs to this board?
Yes. Spare DIN ways are included for adding outgoing protection devices. For nuisance-trip resistance, see our High Immunity RCBOs.
How quickly can this be delivered?
Each unit is built to order and dispatched within 3 working days. For in-stock options, see our 6 Way Consumer Units.
