SCHNEIDER 2 POLE RCCB
The Schneider Electric 2-Pole RCCB (also known as an ELCB) is a critical life-safety device designed to protect people from fatal electrical shocks and mitigate fire hazards caused by earth leakage currents. Operating on single-phase electrical systems, this 2-pole device continuously monitors the balance of current between the live and neutral wires, instantly cutting off the power supply if an imbalance or leakage to earth is detected.
Key Features:
-
High-Sensitivity Shock Protection: Engineered to trip within milliseconds when current leakage is detected, providing robust protection for human life against direct contact with live parts.
-
Schneider Quality Assurance: Renowned for durability and precise calibration, minimizing the occurrence of annoying “nuisance tripping” while maintaining strict safety standards.
-
Test Button Functionality: Equipped with an easily accessible, front-facing “T” (Test) Button to routinely test the mechanical functionality of the breaker and ensure ongoing operating safety.
-
Standard DIN-Rail Mounting: Designed for quick, modular snap-on integration into standard single-phase household and commercial distribution boards (DB).
-
Visual Trip Status Indication: Clear toggle and window indicators provide immediate visual feedback regarding whether the breaker has tripped due to an electrical fault or has been turned off manually.
Amperage Selection Guide:
| Amperage (Rating) | Standard Malaysian Applications |
| 40A | Ideal for small to mid-sized residential single-phase homes, apartments, or retail shops with standard electrical loads (lighting, fans, basic power sockets). |
| 63A | The standard choice for modern single-phase landed properties, large apartments, and offices handling heavier power configurations (multiple air conditioners, water heaters, and heavy kitchen appliances). |
