SENTRON residual current protective devices (RCDs)

The number of electrical consumers in homes and commercial buildings has increased significantly. The latest electrical devices often have quite different characteristics in terms of current consumption than earlier devices. This requires new protection strategies for electrical installations including appropriate RCDs or RCCDs that cut the current immediately and safely in the event of a fault.
5SV1 RCBOs - Double protection in one device
The compact 5SV1 RCBOs reliably protect different electrical circuits against fault currents. They combine residual current detection and overcurrent protection in just one modular width (MW) and ensure reliable personal and cable protection in numerous areas of application with just one device.Highlights:
- Space savings of 50% thanks to a compact solution for residual current and line protection
- Simple retrofit in existing systems thanks to the same design
- Easy integration on DIN rails thanks to slider actuation
- Possibility of adding a 5SM6 AFD unit for protection against fault currents, overcurrent, short-circuits and arcing faults in just two modular widths
