RCCB stands for Residual Current Circuit Breaker. It’s a safety device designed to protect people from electrical shock and appliances from damage by:
1. Detecting residual currents (leakage currents)
2. Tripping the circuit when a fault is detected
1. Sensitivity (e.g., 10mA, 30mA, 100mA)
2. Tripping time (e.g., 10ms, 50ms)
3. Rated current (e.g., 16A, 32A, 63A)
4. Pole configuration (e.g., 2P, 4P)
1. Monitors current imbalance between phases
2. Detects earth leakage currents
3. Trips the circuit when a fault is detected
4. Disconnects power supply
1. Voltage-independent RCCB
2. Voltage-dependent RCCB
3. Time-delayed RCCB
4. Selective RCCB
1. Residential and commercial buildings
2. Industrial power distribution
3. Hospitals and healthcare facilities
4. Swimming pools and bathrooms
5. Outdoor installations
1. Enhanced electrical safety
2. Protection against electrical shock
3. Reduced risk of fire
4. Compliance with safety standards
5. Easy installation and maintenance
RCCBs are essential safety devices, providing protection against electrical hazards and ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
