Description
WCED WMEPME12/LB
PME / PEN Fault Detection Unit with Load Management and Meter
The PME / PEN Fault Detection Unit WMEPME12/LB is an advanced solution designed for EV chargers without integral PME protection, earth leakage protection, or overload protection. It ensures the safety and efficiency of EV charging systems by combining fault detection, load management, surge protection, and energy monitoring through a kilowatt-hour meter. This comprehensive 12-module unit is ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial installations.
Key Features of PME / PEN Fault Detection Unit with Load Management and Meter
- C40 RCBO (Double Pole, Type A): Provides overcurrent and residual current protection with a 40A rating for enhanced safety.
- Load Management with Current Transformer: Automatically balances power usage by monitoring the main cable to prevent overloading, especially useful for homes with high-power appliances.
- Kilowatt-Hour Meter: Tracks energy consumption, providing valuable insights for EV charging efficiency.
- Type 2 Surge Protective Device (SPD): Shields electrical systems from harmful voltage spikes, protecting connected devices.
- Voltage Monitoring: Automatically monitors supply voltage on 230V and 240V systems to ensure safe operation:
- Under-Voltage Protection: Isolates Live, Neutral, and Earth within 5 seconds if voltage drops below 207V.
- Over-Voltage Protection: Isolates Live, Neutral, and Earth within 5 seconds if voltage exceeds 253V.
- Automatic Reset for Under-Voltage: Resumes operation when normal voltage is restored.
- Manual Reset for Over-Voltage: Requires pressing the “Reset” button for safety.
Load Management Explained
Load management prevents overcapacity by distributing available power equally across all connected devices. By installing a current transformer on the incoming main cable, the system protects against overloading from EV chargers and other high-current appliances such as induction hobs, electric showers, and heating systems. This feature ensures reliable performance and prevents tripping or damage to the electrical system.
