Understanding the RCD Concept Residual Current Devices, often referred to as RCDs, are fundamental safety mechanisms in electrical circuits. They provide protection by automatically disconnecting the power supply whenever the live conductor current at a given point in the phase surpasses a predetermined value. Unveiling the Type B RCD RCDs come in various types –…
Grasping Basic Concepts The Essence of Current Transformers Current transformers are fundamental devices in power systems, adept at converting high currents into proportionately lower currents. They are pivotal in both measurement and protection applications within power systems. Their key role is energy conversion, where they transduce high input currents to manageable, low output currents proportional…
