RCCB Earth Leakage
Circuit Breakers
RCCB Series compact Earth
Leakage Circuit Breakers detect
and interrupt earth (ground) faults.
They are VDE approved for the Eu-
ropean system of protecting peo-
ple, animals, equipment and prop-
erty from dangerous line-to-ground
and shock hazard currents.
US applications include ground-
fault protection of equipment
(GFPE) using the 10mA and 30mA
fault current ratings, especially
when high distributed capacitance
or other leakages cause excessive
nuisance trips at lower fault cur-
rents. Applications for the 300mA
and 500mA ratings are equipment
protection and fire prevention, lim-
iting the energy of a fault to less
than the minimum ignition energy
for many materials.

FI trips are calibrated at less than fault trip current for ensured safety (Typical trip range between
66.6-83.3% fault trip current, e.g., typical trip at 20-25mA for fault RC of 30mA)
Fully functional after 5,000 operations to DIN/VDE 0664T10, IEC 61008-1 and 2000 additional fault current trips.

Environmental Information marked with “Snowflake” approval for -25°C to 40°C (-13°F to 104°F)
ambient temperature. (Temperature effect on RC: for every 10°C temperature rise above 40°C
decrease RC by 7%.)
According to IEC 60068-2-30: heat (25°C~55°C), relative humidity (93%~95%)
Uninsulated electrically live parts within 30mm of the operating handle are “finger safe” (terminal
screw heads) and uninsulated live parts within 100mm of the operating handle are “back-of-
hand safe” (terminals).
20g with impact force half-cycle sinusoidal and 20ms duration, 18 impacts total with 6 on each
principal axis (3 impacts each face). FI is DIN Rail mounted during the test, and electrically
loaded with 25% of Fault RC. Successful testing required no trip during the test, no damage and
no loosened parts.
5g, at frequency of
≤80Hz,
applied for 30 minutes along each of the three principal axes, plus 5
minutes of application at every established critical resonant frequency. FI is DIN Rail mounted
during the test, and loaded with 25% Fault RC. To pass, the FI did not trip at 25% Fault RC, but
did trip between each of the principal axis tests when the fault current was raised to 125% Fault
RC, and there was no damage and no loosened parts. Suitable for machinery and mobile
vehicle applications.
IP20; higher protection Class is dependent on housing.
The FI is tested and approval stamped for tripping sensitivity to non-sinusoidal fault currents,
which become zero or almost zero within one cycle of the line frequency. Waveforms and
allowed trip-current ranges are as follows:

AC Sinusoidal Fault - 0.5-1.0 times Fault RC
Pulsating DC Fault;
