Discover advantages: Type F
Offer the same range of protection and functionality as
a Type A RCD; this means that release with sinusoidal AC
currents as well as pulsating DC currents.
In addition to this, they are capable of detecting residual
currents from mixed frequencies of up to 1000 Hz, which
can often occur on the outgoing feeder side of singlephase frequency converters.
Type B
In adition to release residual current waveforms
of type A, B type RCCBs are used to detect
smooth DC residual currents. B Type RCCBs are
recommended for use with EV Charge and drives
and inverters for supplying motors for pumps,
lifts, textile machines, machine tools… since they
recognise a continuous fault current with low
level ripple.
This prevents undesirable interruptions to the electrical
supply if, for example, pulsed leakage currents of up to
ten milliseconds occur at activation of filter capacitors.
Type AC: Release with sinusoidal currents which occur suddenly or slowly rise in magnitude.
Type A-Ai: Release with sinusoidal currents and also with pulsating direct current which occur
suddenly or slowly rise in magnitude.
Type S-Si (type A-Ai): Time delay release with sinusoidal currents and also with pulsating direct
current which occur suddenly or slowly rise in magnitude.
