Circuit Protection

This executive summary introduces the Digital RCD in industrial applications white paper. It is an essential read for those looking to maximize uptime of their machines, protecting them against damage caused by residual and leakage currents as well as providing monitoring and pre-warning capabilities for the end user.

Variable speed drives can cause tripping problems and threaten the effectiveness of the protection functions when operated with the wrong Residual Current Device (RCD). Uncover how to find the best combination of RCD and Drives in our white paper.

Machine reliability is vital to a business in reducing downtime and increasing productivity by using the right technology that is in line with standards and safety requirements. In this white paper Peter-Lukas Genowitz, product manager RCCB at Eaton, reviews the life threatening effects of electrical current on the human body, the functioning of residual current devices (RCDs), their installation and role within an overall protection strategy.

This executive summary introduces the white paper about RCD, an essential read for those wanting to ensure they are employing the correct technologies while adhering to all necessary legislation to protect operators and assets. This helps machine builders to keep the risk of liability claims at the lowest possible level.

Very often the solar collectors of Airlight Energy are installed in remote areas that are not easy to reach, with strong regular Sunlight during days and potentially cold nights. Within these challenging environments, the electronic and electrical equipment installed into each collector has to be robust – and this includes the power distribution system and switchgear. High availability and simplified maintenance is needed in this challenging environment.

Effective, advanced circuit protection plays a central role in machine reliability. It supports optimum productivity by reducing faults and maximizing up time. Discover how our solutions help you to increase system safety, while meeting global standards and legislative compliance.
