Hager's VR640EVSPD is specifically designed to meet the requirements for Electric Vehicle (EV) charging installations as outlined in Section 722 of BS 7671. This consumer unit is equipped with the necessary RCD protection as per regulations and can be used as a standalone dedicated EVCP supply unit within the dwelling.

One of the key advantages of Hager's EV consumer units is that they can be connected to and fed from the meter tails in the supply cupboard, with approval from the distribution network operator. This eliminates the need for additional cabling from the main consumer unit, making installation more efficient and cost-effective.

Furthermore, Hager's EV consumer units come with new devices that are tested for continuous EV charging, ensuring reliable and safe operation. By positioning the consumer unit closer to the charging point, the need for long and unsightly cables running through the home is eliminated, providing a more aesthetically pleasing solution. Overall, Hager's EV consumer units offer a convenient and practical solution for EV charging installations, addressing common challenges such as limited space in existing consumer units and the need for compliant RCD protection.

Featuring a built-in Surge Protective Device (SPD), this consumer unit provides additional protection against electrical surges and transient voltage spikes, safeguarding both the electric vehicle and the charging equipment. This added layer of protection is crucial for maintaining the integrity of sensitive electronics and ensuring safe charging operations.
