What is RCCb

RCCB stands for Residual Current Circuit Breaker. It is an electrical safety device that is designed to protect people and equipment from electric shock and fire caused by earth leakage currents. RCCBs are typically installed in electrical distribution systems and monitor the flow of current through a circuit. If the current flowing through the circuit differs from the current returning through the neutral conductor by a predetermined amount, it indicates that there is an earth fault or leakage current. In such a situation, the RCCB will trip and disconnect the power supply to the circuit, thereby preventing the risk of electric shock or fire. RCCBs are commonly used in homes, offices, and industrial settings to provide protection against electrical hazards. They are an important component of electrical safety and are typically required by electrical codes and regulations.
