ELCB(or)RCCB
An Earth-leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) is a safety device used in electrical installations with high Earth impedance to prevent shock. It detects small stray voltages on the metal enclosures of electrical equipment, and interrupts the circuit if a dangerous voltage is detected.
ELCB/RCCB (Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker / Residual Current Circuit Breaker):
Earth Leakage Protection: Detects and disconnects power during current leakage to prevent electric shock.
High Sensitivity: Trips even at small leakage currents (typically 30mA) for enhanced safety.
Quick Disconnection: Cuts off power within milliseconds to reduce risk of electrocution or fire.
No Overload Protection: Specifically designed for earth fault protection (complemented by MCB).
Test Button Feature: Allows regular checking to ensure proper functioning.
Flame-Retardant Housing: Ensures safe operation even in harsh environments
