BG SyncEV CFEV5A-01: Durable Grey IP65 Consumer Unit with RCD + MCB for EV Chargers

Ensure your external EV charger installation is safe and compliant with the BG SyncEV CFEV5A-01 consumer unit. Presented in a robust anthracite grey (RAL 7016) cast aluminium enclosure with an IP65 rating, it's built for outdoor wiring applications. This unit provides dedicated circuit protection for electric vehicle chargers, adhering to the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) Amendment 2.

Separate RCD and MCB Protection

This configuration offers distinct RCD and overcurrent protection. The unit comes populated with a 40A 30mA Double Pole Type A RCD serving as the incomer, a separate 40A B Curve MCB for overcurrent protection of the final circuit, and an integrated Type 2 Surge Protection Device (SPD), according to the product's technical data. This setup provides clear separation of protective functions for the EV charger circuit.

Robust Outdoor Enclosure (IP65)

Designed to endure external conditions, the CFEV5A-01 boasts a tough 2mm cast aluminium body providing IP65 protection against dust and water. Its UV stability, noted in the manufacturer's specifications, helps the anthracite grey finish resist weathering. Flexible cable entry is facilitated by multiple M20 knockouts (drillable up to M32) on all sides, suitable for various EV cabling routes.

Meeting 18th Edition Amendment 2 Standards

Install with confidence knowing this unit meets BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 requirements. It includes the necessary Type A RCD sensitivity and Type 2 SPD surge protection mandated for EV charger installations. Enhanced security is provided through built-in padlock compatibility and wire seal tabs.
