16.6 Residual current protection function
16.6.1
General
EMAX circuit-breakers can be equipped with a toroid fitted at the rear of the CB (at a max distance of ten meters) so as to ensure protection against
residual current ground faults.
In particular, the electronic releases which can ensure this function are as follows:
- PR122/P LSIRc,
- PR122/P LSIG fitted with a PR120/V module
- PR123/P LSIG.
The residual current protection function is available only in the event of a dedicated rating plug which carries sensitivity ranges and non-trip times
characterizing this function.
Available Settings
400
630
800
1250
2000
3200
Two toroidal sizes are available: the small toroid can be installed on E1 and E2 three-pole sizes, the medium toroid can be installed on E1 and E2
four-pole sizes and on E3 three-pole sizes.
The PR122/P LSIRc unit provides all PR122/P LSI functions but with one addition: protection against residual current faults.
Using PR122/P LSIG with additional PR120/V module, the protection against residual current is added to a unit having the characteristics of a PR122/
P LSI and all additional ones described for the PR120/V module, see par. 15.1.
With a PR123/P LSIG unit, the Rc protection function replaces the external G function (Gext); however, G function is retained.
The following table shows the available settings:

The Rc protection is activated only when a rating plug dedicated to Rc function is available, and after correctly performing
the unit installation procedure.
This protection cannot be disabled.
