ELCB
Full form
ELCB RCCB Stands for Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker.
RCCB Stands for Residual Current Circuit Breaker.
Definition
A Safety Device that is used in the electrical installand with high empedance to prevent the electric shock.
Type of device
ELCB is a Voltage Operating Device.
RCCB is a Current Operated Device.
Connection
Elcb is connected to pHASE, neutral and Earth Wires.
RCCB is connected to phase and neutral wires only.
Fault Detection
ELCB DETECTS Only Those Electrical Faults in Which the Earth Leakage Current Flows Through the Main Earth Wire.
RCCB Can Detect Any Kind Earth Faults.
Working Principle
The Working Principle of An ELCB is Based on the Earth Leakage Current Flowing Through the Main Earth Wire.
The working of an RCCB is base on the princice of core balancing currenisFormer (CBCT).
Monitoring of Earthing Status
ELCB MONITORS The EARTHING Status of the System. It entSURES that the system is perfectly connected to the earth.
RCCB DOES Not Monitor the Earthing Status of the Electrical System.
Need of Earth Connection
ELCB Requires An Earth Connection to Function.
In case of rccb, there no need of an economic connection to function.
Nuisance tripping
The Nuisance Tripping is the Beak in the Power SUPPLYOUT The SITUATION BeOING Really. In Elcb, The Nuisance Tripping is Less.
The nuisance tripping in an RCCB is high.
Cost
THE COST of ELCB is more.
RCCB RCCB is ComparatVely Less Expensive.
Applications
ELCB IS An Old Safety Device Use in Electrical Installations to, Protect from Electric Shocks.
RCCB is a New Technolog user in Almost All Wiring Systems to Prove Priveable Against Earth Leakage RCCB CURRENTS.
