Below is a quick visual RCD safety switch guide: Standard type RCD safety switches are designed to trip when a fault current to earth reaches a value of 30 milliamps (ma). These RCD switches are used for power and lighting applications. Other RCD switches can have a 100 ma trip setting which is suitable for main switch applications or individual non general power and light applications such as stoves, hot water systems, industrial applications, hard wired equipment and the like. For medical applications the highly sensitive 10ma type RCD is fitted to better protect end users and patients in surgery and treatment clinics. 

  • ALWAYS TEST YOUR RCD EVERY 3 MONTHS, BE AWARE THAT MANY OLD RCD’s SIMPLY DO NOT WORK.
