Siemens RCDs: Safeguarding Electrical Consumers in Homes and Commercial Buildings

With the increasing number of electrical consumers, it's important to have strong protection devices in place. To adapt to the changing current consumption patterns of modern devices, advanced protection strategies are becoming essential. That's where SENTRON RCDs, or Residual Current Circuit Breakers (RCCBs), come in. They provide a reliable and efficient solution for quickly and effectively interrupting current flow during faults.

Enhancing Electrical Safety with Siemens RCD

Siemens RCDs (Residual Current Devices), a reliable and innovative solution, play a crucial role in enhancing electrical safety. These cutting-edge devices are designed to detect even the smallest electrical imbalances, providing proactive protection against electric shocks and fire hazards. Siemens RCDs continuously monitor the electrical circuit, instantly detecting any leakage currents that may occur due to insulation faults or faulty appliances. Once a deviation from the normal current is detected, the RCD swiftly trips, automatically cutting off the power supply and preventing potential accidents. With their advanced technology and high-quality performance, Siemens RCDs offer peace of mind and ensure a safe electrical environment for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

5SV RCCBs, Type A and F

5SV RCCBs, Type A and F

Type A RCCBs trip both with sinusoidal AC fault currents and with pulsating DC fault currents. The protective devices are mainly used for single-phase loads with electrical components in the power supply. Single-phase frequency converters are used in many modern devices, such as washing machines or heating pumps. These can generate residual currents from a frequency mixture with frequency components in the kHz range. Type F residual current operated circuit breakers, which have a surge current strength of > 3 kA and a load capacity with smooth DC fault currents of up to 10 mA, protect against this.

5SV3 RCCBs, type B/B+

5SV3 RCCBs, type B/B+

To protect against smooth DC residual currents, SIQUENCE 5SV3 type B/B+ universal current-sensitive RCCBs with an integrated SIGRES function are used. They have an additional converter for the separate detection of DC residual currents and are suitable for use in three-phase systems upstream of input circuits with rectifiers.

RC units 5SM2, type A and F

5SV3 RCCBs, type B/B+

RC units according to DIN EN 61009-1 (VDE 0664-20) are suitable for the attachment of miniature circuit breakers. Combined with a miniature circuit breaker, they provide the same functionality as RCBOs. They enable a high degree of flexibility in use and high protection functions.

RCBOs 5SV1 Type A and F in 1 MW

RCBOs 5SV1 Type A and F in 1 MW

RCBOs (Residual current operated circuit breakers with overcurrent protection) combine residual current detection and overcurrent protection in a single device. The 5SV1 RCBOs for the first time combine residual current and overload protection in one modular width (MW). Thus more protection devices can be installed in the distribution board and existing installations can easily be expanded with new protection functions in a space-saving solution. The protection devices can also be connected in a 5SM6 AFD unit - thus offering personal, line and preventive fire protection.

5SU1 type A multi-pole RCBOs

5SU1 RCBOs in 2-, 3-, and 4-pole versions combine residual current circuit breakers and miniature circuit breakers in one device. They protect people from fault currents and systems from short circuits and overloads. They ensure all-pole protection of final circuits with 2, 3 or 4 outer conductors as well as protection of the N conductor against overload due to harmonics in non-linear consumers such as PC power supplies, energy-saving lamps or consumer electronics.
