Product Usage Instructions:
Metal Consumer Unit Features:
The WMEPME12/LB range consumer unit is designed for EV Chargers
without integral PME protection. It offers earth leakage, overload
protection, and load management capabilities.
Fault Detection and Isolation:
-
The unit monitors supply voltage at 230V & 240V.
-
If voltage falls below 207V or exceeds 253V, Live, Neutral
& Earth will be isolated within 5 seconds. -
Under-voltage isolation resets automatically when normal range
is restored. -
For over-voltage isolation, press the REST button on the WVP32
device to reset after safety grounds.
Load Management Installation:
Install a current transformer (CT) like the WCT24 split core CT
on the main cable to prevent overloading by car chargers. This
feature is beneficial for properties with high current appliances
like induction hobs, electric showers, and heating systems.
WCT24 CT Specifications:
- Maximum current: 100Amps
- Lead length: 1.5m
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: How do I reset the unit after an over-voltage
isolation?
A: To reset after an over-voltage isolation, press the REST
button on the WVP32 device for safety reasons.
Q: What is the purpose of load management in this consumer
unit?
A: Load management helps protect the installation from
overloading by car chargers and other high-current appliances.

Metal consumer unit- PME fault detection-Load Management
The WMEPME12/LB range consumerunit is perfect for EV Chargers that do not have integral PMEprotection & earth leakage protection & overload protection & require load management. This board also includes a Kilowatt hour meter.
- Automatically monitors the supply voltage on both 230V & 240V 2) Within 5 seconds in the event of an under-voltage of less than 207V or an over-voltage of more than 253V Live, Neutral & Earth will be isolated. 3)Following an under-voltage isolation, will automatically reset when normal operating range is restored. 4) Following an over-voltage isolation, on the grounds of safety, will need to press the “REST”button of WVP32to rest the device.

Load management
Installing a current transformer on the incoming supply (Main cable) protects
against the car charger overloading the installation. This feature is useful
for properties with existing
high current electric appliances, e.g. induction hobs, electric showers and
heating.
