2.4 Measuring RCD parameters
2.4.1 Background of measurement
RCD protection switches are used to protect users of electric appliances against
electric shock caused by fault and leakage currents in the installation. Even relatively
small currents are dangerous if resistance to earth and equipotential bonding are
relatively high. Typical fault reasons are deteriorated insulation, dirt, moisture, filter
capacitors etc.
