Product type
A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) is an electrical device designed to protect against electric shock and electrical fires caused by earth faults. It works by detecting imbalances in the electrical current flowing through the live and neutral wires. If an imbalance is detected, indicating a potential leak of current to the ground, the RCCB quickly disconnects the circuit, preventing harm to individuals and damage to equipment. RCCBs are typically made from durable plastic housings with internal electronic components that facilitate their operation.
| Rated current | 16A to 125A |
| Rated residual operating current | 30mA to 300mA |
| Number of poles | 2, 3, or 4 poles |
| Voltage rating | 230V to 400V AC |
| Tripping time | 30 milliseconds or less |
| Standards compliance | IEC 61008 |
When selecting a Residual Current Circuit Breaker, consider the rated current and the rated residual operating current appropriate for your application. It's important to determine the number of poles required based on your circuit configuration. Additionally, ensure the RCCB complies with relevant standards and regulations. Specify the required tripping time and voltage rating when requesting a quote, and consider the installation environment to ensure compatibility with existing electrical systems.

An RCCB protects against earth faults, while an MCB protects against overloads and short circuits.
It is recommended to test RCCBs every six months to ensure proper functionality.
Yes, but ensure they are housed in weatherproof enclosures.
It indicates a fault in the circuit, and the cause should be investigated before resetting.
No, RCCBs do not protect against overcurrent; an MCB should be used in conjunction.
RCCBs are suitable for most circuits but should be selected based on specific application needs.
