Frequently asked questions
How often should I press the test button?
Follow local regulations; many installers test RCCBs every few months.
Which voltage is it for?
230…240 V AC 50/60 Hz per Schneider.
Does it protect against short circuits?
No. An RCCB only detects earth leakage; use it together with circuit breakers. Schneider gives a rated conditional short-circuit current of 10 kA.
What sensitivity does it have?
30 mA, Type AC, per Schneider.
Can I get a price and delivery time?
Prices are quoted on request. Send the order number, quantity and delivery country on WhatsApp and we will reply with price and delivery time; air shipping is usually 5 to 7 days once ready, with a 1-year warranty.
