What is the difference between a PRCD and a PRCD-S?
The PRCD is a portable personal protection switch with an electronic residual current release and undervoltage release.
- It recognises residual currents that occur, for example, when a faulty electrical appliance is touched and interrupts the current so quickly that life-threatening accidents can be prevented.
- It also has an undervoltage release that switches off in the event of a mains voltage failure to prevent secondary accidents.
The PRCD-S is an all-pole switching, portable residual current device with electronic residual current evaluation, designed as an intermediate cord device.
Additional functions compared to the PRCD:
- Check the socket outlet to ensure that phase L, neutral conductor N and protective conductor PE are present, correctly connected and not reversed.
- Only allows power to be drawn from a safe socket.
- Checks the protective conductor when switching on.
- Monitors the protective conductor during operation.
- Cannot be switched on if a fault is detected.
- Switches off automatically as soon as a fault occurs (e.g. protective conductor breakage).
- Does not switch off if external voltage is applied to the protective conductor, e.g. by drilling into a
- External line. As the PRCD-S does not switch off in this case, the upstream protective device can respond and interrupt the circuit.
