196200015 Personal protective device for construction sites, excluding cab

The PRCD-S is a PRCD (Portable Residual Current Device; S = safety) designed as an intermediate cord device with electronic residual current evaluation. It is particularly suitable as a PRCD-S for small construction sites as recommended by the Energy Textile Electrics professional association (BGI608) as well as all portable electrical appliances.

In accordance with BGI608, the PRCD-S features the following functions:

- Residual current protective device - Under-voltage protection - Earth conductor detection - Protective conductor monitoring - External voltage detection

Protection if external voltage is on the protective conductor

- The PRCD-S detects the external voltage on the earth conductor. - However, the PRCD-S does not interrupt the earth connector connection. - The external voltage can therefore be isolated via their own, upstream protective devices FI and LS.

PRCD-S scope of protection and small construction site distributor with PRCD-S

- In the event of errors in the connected electrical appliance: - The PRCD-S provides protection according to DIN VDE 0661. - Residual currents caused by defective consumers result in all-pin shutdown via the PRCD-S.

For system faults in the permanent installation:

The PRCD-S detects all conceivable faults in the permanent installation and cannot be switched on in the event of a detected fault. The intact protective conductor functions are checked before turning on and monitored during operation. An increase in protective level against shock currents is achieved. Under-voltage protection prevents automatic switch-on after power is restored. The PRCD-S does not shut off when the protective conductor is supplied with external voltage, e.g. by drilling into an external cable. The upstream safety device can therefore respond.
