The WPRC32BSP is a weatherproof IP65 EV RCBO kit combining a 32A B Curve Type A RCBO with a factory-fitted Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD). Built into a robust plastic enclosure, it delivers overload, short circuit, earth leakage, and transient surge protection in one compact outdoor-ready unit.
Engineered for EV charger supplies, solar PV systems, and external distribution circuits, the WPRC32BSP ensures compliance with 18th Edition Amendment 2. Its dual-handle fault indication system makes fault-finding fast and intuitive on site.
Installer Tip: The 32A B Curve version is the best choice for standard domestic EV charger installs. For higher inrush circuits such as certain PV inverters or heat pumps, use the 32A C Curve variant.
Key Features
- 32A B Curve Type A RCBO – protects against overloads, short circuits, and AC/DC earth leakage (30mA AC + 6mA DC)
- Factory-fitted Type 2 SPD – 20kA/40kA transient surge defence
- Dual-handle trip indication – black handle trips on overload/short, both handles trip on earth leakage
- IP65 plastic enclosure – fully weatherproof and UV-resistant
- Pre-installed earth/neutral bars and SPD module
- Complies with BS EN 61009, BS EN 61439-3, and BS 7671:2018 A2

Is this suitable for outdoor EV charger installs?
Yes. The IP65 enclosure is fully weatherproof, making it suitable for wall-mounting next to EV charge points. For indoor options, see our 4 Way Metal RCBO EV Protection Unit.
What does dual-handle tripping mean?
If only the black handle trips, it indicates overload or short circuit. If both black and white handles trip, it indicates a residual current fault. For single-handle alternatives, see our Mini Type A RCBOs.
Can this be used with solar PV systems?
Yes. It’s ideal for solar strings and battery circuits where RCBO + SPD protection is required in an outdoor location. For larger solar setups, see our 5 Module Solar Board with SPD + Meter.
Does it provide PME fault protection?
No. This unit provides RCBO + SPD protection only. For full PME compliance, pair it with our PME Fault Detection Unit.
