Class A RCDs: residual current protection for circuits with electronic or rectified loads.

  • Class: A class for AC and pulsating DC residual currents.
  • Sensitivity: 30mA for personal protection and 300mA for selected applications.
  • Formats: 2P and 4P versions according to the board.
  • Use: electronic loads, appliances and tertiary circuits.

Class A RCDs for modern electrical loads

Class A RCDs detect both sinusoidal AC residual currents and pulsating DC components. This makes them suitable for circuits that include electronic devices, power supplies and appliances with rectifiers.

They are a preferred option when the installation includes washing machines, LED drivers, electronics, HVAC controls or other modern loads.

  • Class: A class for AC and pulsating DC residual currents.
  • Sensitivity: 30mA for personal protection and 300mA for selected applications.
  • Formats: 2P and 4P versions according to the board.
  • Use: electronic loads, appliances and tertiary circuits.

This content differentiates Class A RCDs from Class AC and super-immunised categories by focusing on load compatibility.
