Versions
Super resistant
æ
Short-time delayed tripping in the case of transient leakage
currents. High surge current withstand capability: > 3 kA.
Selective
î
:
Can be used as upstream group switch for selective tripping
contrary to a downstream, instantaneous or super resistant
RCCB.
Configuration
DIN VDE 0100-530 "Selection of protective devices" also describes
the configuration of systems with residual current protective devices.
EN 50178 (DIN VDE 0160) "Equipping power installations with
electronic equipment" describes, among other things, how to
select the type of residual current protective device suitable.
When configuring and installing electrical installations, electrical
loads that can generate smooth DC residual currents in the event
of a fault must be assigned a separate electrical circuit with a
universal current-sensitive residual current protective device
(
type B).
It is not permitted to branch electrical circuits with these types of
electrical loads after pulse-current-sensitive residual current
protective devices (type A):
