Dedicated Heat Pump Consumer Unit with 3 x C16 MCB Protection
Live Electrical Heat Pump Consumer Unit – LHP1040MSE-3M
Protect dedicated heat pump installations with the Live Electrical Heat Pump Consumer Unit 3 x C16 MCB. Specifically designed for heat pump circuits, this pre-configured enclosure combines a 40A Type B HP RCD, 3 x C16 MCBs, and a Type 2 SPD to provide reliable protection against earth faults, overloads, short circuits, and transient surges.
Built for modern heat pump systems, this 10-module consumer unit supports safe operation where high-frequency and DC leakage currents may be present. The included Live CEB240-030 40A 2 Pole Type B HP RCD operates beyond 20kHz and features a raised 150mA trip threshold above 1kHz, helping to reduce nuisance tripping while maintaining accurate fault detection.
This unit offers a clean, efficient solution for installers requiring compliant and dependable protection for heat pump supplies.
