Schrack residual current circuit breakers: Safety and reliability for every electrical installation
Schrack residual current circuit breakers (RCCBs) are an essential component of modern electrical installations, providing effective protection against electrical accidents. Schrack Technik, a leading provider of electrical engineering solutions, offers a wide range of residual current circuit breakers that meet the highest safety standards while also enabling easy installation.
What are residual current circuit breakers (RCCBs)?
Residual current devices (RCDs), also known as ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs), protect people and equipment from dangerous electrical accidents. They monitor the current flow and automatically disconnect the circuit as soon as a fault current is detected – for example, due to water coming into contact with a live wire or a faulty electrical appliance. An RCD works by measuring the differential current between the incoming and outgoing current. If a difference is detected, the RCD interrupts the current flow within milliseconds.
Schrack residual current circuit breakers: Quality and versatility
Schrack offers a wide range of residual current circuit breakers (RCCBs) characterized by high reliability and ease of use. The product range includes both standard RCCBs and specialized versions for specific applications. These breakers are available in various current ratings and fault current sensitivities, making them suitable for a wide variety of installation requirements.
Some outstanding features of Schrack residual current circuit breakers (RCCBs) are:
-
High switching speed : Schrack switches react instantly to fault currents, thus ensuring effective protection.
-
Reliability under environmental influences : Schrack residual current circuit breakers are designed to operate reliably even under adverse conditions such as humidity or extreme temperatures.
