How to install and what the Bticino F80SG automatic reset module is

What is the Bticino F80SG automatic reset module

The Bticino F80SG automatic reset module, also known as Stop&Go, is a device that couples to the differential or circuit breaker present in the home electrical panel. A fundamental feature to know is that the module occupies two DIN modules, therefore, coupled to the differential, it will occupy a total of 4.

Compatibility and installation

Checking compatibility

An equally important detail is that the new F80SG can only be coupled with the new Ticino modular models and not with the previous ones. It is therefore crucial to verify compatibility with the circuit-breaker already installed before purchasing the automatic reset module.

Installation procedure

Installing the module is incredibly simple. First of all, it is essential to turn off the power to work safely. Placing the reset module and the differential on a flat surface, you must bring them closer, making sure that the levers and holes match and that both are in the "off" position. Finally, it will be necessary to push the two specified gray levers, a simple but fundamental procedure for correct operation.

Operation and safety

Once the automatic reset module has been installed, pressing the RCD test button will automatically activate the reset of the circuit breaker. This process, however, can only occur three consecutive times; after which, it will be necessary to manually reset. This precautionary limit was designed to ensure that any persistent anomalies in the system are identified and resolved, maintaining high safety.

Security Concerns

Some may wonder whether automatic resetting could pose a security risk. However, if the breaker trips again due to a persistent problem, the module will interrupt the automatic reset sequence after the three times, requiring manual intervention. This ensures that any signs of malfunction are not ignored but adequately investigated.
