A residual current device (RCD,) is the generic term for a device that monitors the
current in the line conductor and the neutral conductor of a circuit in an earthed
system.
In a circuit that’s operating properly, the vector sum of the live and neutral current
values added together will be zero. Current flowing to earth, due to a line earth fault,
will return via the earth conductor, and regardless of load conditions, will be registered
as a fault. This current flow will give rise to a residual current that will be detected by the
device. If the residual current exceeds the rated sensitivity of the RCD, it will
automatically activate a tripping of the faulty circuit.
Power Requirements:
Single Service
[3 wires (line, neutral, ground)]
230VAC, 50/60Hz, 1p, 16A (Circuit Breaker rating =20A max.)
Single Service [3 wires (line, neutral, ground)]
230VAC, 50/60Hz, 1p, 32A (Circuit Breaker rating =40A max.)
IMPORTANT: If you want to run this spa pack on a
1 x 32 Amp single service you must:
a)
Move dipswitch #2 on switchbank S1
to the ON position
b) Move dipswitch #5 on switchbank S1
to the OFF position
See wiring diagram (back of cover for spa pack)
for switchbank location
