About this deal

Memshield 1 – These are a commercial breaker and come in various types (Type 2,3,B,C & D) depending upon the age. Most are M9 rated.

RCD failing to trip when the appliance is running, and the RCD test button is operated, could be an indication that the appliance is affecting the RCD. In some other countries in Europe (perhaps not coincidentally the ones commonly using 3-phase supply to homes), it's much easier to find type-A or even type-B. Interesting Comments you are entitled to your view, but I am not sure about your motivations - as the article does not say that you cannot use Type AC RCDs. To be honest that is even sillier, as there the thing that has to radiate for its correct operation is being screened.I feel like BIG BUSINESS is trying to pull a fast one with the new 18th edition regs, they are trying to shift responsibility for their sometimes obvious poor standards onto the little man at the bottom of the food chain. It's pretty obvious that insurance companies are trying to get out of paying for damage caused by products that quite frankly should not be in peoples homes in the first place. There's never going to be a perfect solution but there does need to be a less complex solution than there is. Otherwise, I'm not quibbling the need for proper spur to garage, which will separate off two freezers from kitchen, but how do you people feel about this diagnosis? My own insulation tests with mega meter to each unplugged appliance have found no resistance issues, which given he found no wiring issues, leaves no obvious cause except as he thinks maybe too much total freezer earth leakage. Intermittent faults like tripping can send you mad as we all know, is this a good course of action? So - please help me - have I lost touch with the right places to buy RCDs in the UK? Where can one get a fairly broad selection of different types (A, B) at reasonable price? Why do I find almost entirely AC? Type F RCDs cannot provide protection in circuits where there is a requirement to detect smooth DC residual currents, or if the motor frequency can be reduced to zero or the inverter switching frequency is >1kHz. If any of the above conditions apply, Type B RCDs must be used.

The term general purpose relating to Type AC devices should not be taken out of context i.e. it is the most basic RCD, suitable for detecting a simple full sine wave residual current at 50Hz. I suspect that many folk would not like to see that during an inspection. What have you earthed it to ? This information should be held on record, with other design criteria and the Installation Test Certificate for the premises. This will be required in the event of claims for negligence (Public liability insurance). This handy RC Unit (residual current unit) has been designed for installing on to any standard 1P or 1P+N Eaton MCB with a 10kA, 15kA & 6kA rating to create an RCBO. The MR30 RC POD unit is ideal for standard applications with a 230-240 VAC voltage rating and 30 mA breaking capacity and is field fitable. Fully compliant with Standard 61009, this capable MR30 POD is utilised in numerous industrial and commercial applications due to its versatility and ease of assembly.

For single phase inverters used in motor speed control, the characteristics of the equipment will determine if Type A, F or B is required, to meet Regulation 531.3.3 For 3 phase inverters which do not incorporate isolating transformers, Type B RCDs must be used to meet the requirements of Regulation 531.3.3 For additional information. A well-timed subject. Just a few weeks ago I tried to find a new RCD to replace an old BS4293 one. I have seen how a pure type-AC RCDs rated for 30 mA trip can allow multiple amps of half-wave-rectified current without tripping. As this is a TT installation where earth fault protection depends on the RCD, it feels very inappropriate to have anything less than a type-A, given that plenty of loads contain rectifiers. (Admittedly, the old one was presumably only like type-AC, but that's not an excuse.)

Type F RCDs are not designed to detect smooth dc residual currents. They will still trip within safe limits with < 10 mA smooth dc superimposed on a 50Hz pulsed residual current. Single-phase inverter designs, applied in washing machines and handheld appliances, containing variable speed features, may produce mixed frequency leakage currents. Appliances containing inverters and motors, can be used with Type A RCDs, if: If it is the main switch.. this would involve removing and reconnecting the main incomming supply tails.. is the 100a 30ma RCD a main isolator for the whole of the fuse bord or is it just protecting part in a split-load arrangment.High frequency current components can saturate the RCD, preventing detection of 50Hz residual currents. The revised RCD guidance in 531.3.3 is precise. The appropriate Type of RCD must be selected, based on the characteristics of the residual current and the equipment that is likely to be connected to the RCD protected circuit".

A substantial increase in UK demand for a particular product, will normally result in a reduction in unit price, providing the demand does no exceed the availability.

Type A RCDs are not designed to detect smooth dc residual currents. They will still trip within safe limits with < 6 mA smooth dc superimposed on a 50Hz pulsed residual current. Memera 2000AD – These have a narrow terminal and only fit boards specifically marked Memera 2000AD. They won't fit in older boards. i.e. WWFC 1877 Mr Wolves Football supporter I guess - This article raises several questions commonly posed by Installers (see the question marks).The method of installation relating to protective earthing will depend on the operational leakage current (protective conductor current) – see 543.7. The use of a 30mA RCD may be required for several reasons; cable installation, location / application area for the pump etc. Take note of 531.3.2 Operational leakage current (protective conductor current) for the circuit should not exceed 30% of the RCD sensitivity. Add to that the changes that have been imposed on the local supply networks i.e. green energy they have caused a situation that is going to result in frequent surges and transient voltages being produced all the time hence we now need to install surge protection or the likelihood is that if a surge occurs at a property and there is no surge protection then the blame will be passed on to the little man again. I agree with you on that one, as electricians we have very little control over what will eventually be connected to an installation that we have installed.
