RCD – RCBO requirement

Posted
Updated
ByDimlux

When local code requires a RCD or RCBO in the electric circuit, the device should trip at a differential current of 0,3A.

When local code requires a RCD or RCBO of 0,03A, a maximum of 6 fixtures can be connected in 1 circuit. Use a second RCD or RCBO for the next 6 fixtures.

Warning!

  • Make sure mains power is switched off.
  • Ensure the cord is not coiled and does not touch any hot surfaces.
  • Connect the cables according to local rules, safety regulations and electrical code.
  • Ensure external switching gear can cope with the inrush current of the LED fixture. Always use a double pole contactor suitable for switching a capacitive load. Never use household timers to switch the LED fixture!
