O PEN Devices and Supplies

Yassir Khalil

Just as a topic of discussion, O PEN devices are now required to be installed for EV chargers either inside a consumer unit or the Charger itself for TN-CS PME supplies 
when do you think it will become a requirement to fit these devices on final circuits or supplies where metallic objects are connected, for example kitchen appliances or protective bonding conductors connected to pipe work or the use of appliances outside surely the disconnection of the all conductors and CPC and bonding conductors is requirement in the event of this fault occurring. Any Thoughts ?

    I think that would have to be considered very carefully, because there are a number of other considerations, not least the issue of fortuitous or purposeful bonding downstream of the device.
