What are Domestic Differentials?
Household RCDs, also known as RCDs or RCDs, are protective devices that detect current imbalances in electrical circuits. These devices act quickly to interrupt the flow of current in the presence of earth leaks, preventing electric shocks and reducing the risk of fires. They are essential to guarantee the safety of electrical systems in residential environments.
What are domestic differentials for?
Domestic residual current devices are essential for protecting people and electronic devices in homes. Their main function is to detect small but dangerous current imbalances which may indicate an electrical leakage to earth. By acting promptly to interrupt the electrical circuit, these devices protect against electric shock and potential fire, thus ensuring a high level of safety.
Domestic Differentials: How Do They Work?
Household RCDs , commonly known as "GFCIs", are electrical protective devices designed to detect earth leakage currents and quickly interrupt the circuit in the event of a fault. These devices are essential for ensuring the safety of electrical systems in homes, preventing electric shocks and reducing the risk of fires.
The operation of a domestic differential is based on the principle of current balance and the detection of current leakage to earth through a current sensor, generally a toroid. Here is a detailed overview of the process:
- Current Monitoring: The domestic differential continuously monitors the currents flowing in the phase (L) and neutral (N) conductors of the circuit. Under normal conditions, the current entering the phase must be equal to that exiting the neutral, and the sum of these currents is zero.
- Imbalance Detection: If a current leakage to earth occurs (for example, through a person or a faulty appliance), the phase current and neutral current will no longer be balanced. This imbalance generates a residual current flow.
- Current Induction in the Toroid: The differential is equipped with a toroid, a magnetic ring through which the phase and neutral conductors pass. The imbalance of the currents induces a magnetic flux in the toroid, generating a secondary current.
- Activation of the Trip Mechanism: The current induced in the toroid is detected by a sensitive coil, which activates the trip mechanism of the differential. When the leakage current exceeds the preset safety threshold (typically 30 mA for residential applications), the mechanism intervenes to immediately interrupt the electrical circuit.
