I have the same Rolec 16A Wallpod which is definitely on its own RCB and its own circuit. Over the past couple of weeks it has started tripping frequently. It only ever trips the circuit breaker module in the Wallpod itself.

I've tried to observe what is going on and it is tripping AFTER the car has taken its full charge and it has also tripped whilst the car is not connected at all. I have had no issues with the car and its own Voltec portable charger so I don't think it's the car.

The installer has agreed to inspect but suggested the plug may be getting damp - it was fine during the Feb torrential rain and it is drier weather now so I don't agree.

Any thoughts ?

Update : RCBO changed and all is well again. Thanks for contributions above.

In my case the installer felt it was due to moisture - I didn't agree as the charger had worked fine during the very wet Feb weather and still tripped when dry. Nevertheless I now always use the plastic holster to cover the tethered plug rather than leave it loose just in case.
