Residual Current Device 30ma. The residual current circuit breaker rccbs are the safest device to detect and trip against electrical leakage currents thus ensuring protection against electric shock caused by indirect contacts. Rcd type b description.
Electrical underfloor heating is required to be protected by a 100 ma rcd. Residual current device rcd it is not quite clear when and by whom the first residual current device rcd was developed but it certainly appeared on the market in the 1950s and was initially used by some utility companies to fight energy theft due to the use of currents from phase to earth instead of phase to neutral. These rcds must be of type a.
