What is an RCD?  R.C.D or ‘Residual Current Device’ is an electrical safety switch once referred to as an  ‘Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker’.  It should not be confused with a standard circuit breaker that will only cut off the power should a heavy overload occur.  Only the RCD can provide an increased level of personal electrical safety.

How do RCDs work? The RCD safety switch assists in preventing electric shock by  constantly monitoring your power.  Should it detect a minute electrical fault from the active or  neutral conductor to  earth,  your power is switched off in a split second.  With no RCD fitted that hazard remains unchecked increasing the likelyhood of a fatal electric shock.

The 6 top reasons for having  an RCD switch installed in Perth

1) Installing  an RCD will help prevent electric shock
2) The  RCD  can detect faulty appliances
3) The  RCD  can detect faulty  wiring
4) The  RCD can detect water in your electrical system
5) The RCD can help prevent electrical fires and damage to your property
6) There must be at least 2  RCD’s  fitted  to comply with new laws.

Which RCD should you have installed in your home?   We prefer to install the high quality single pole safety switch  in  the 6KA range.  This is a fast acting,  more compact RCD switch which is  a circuit breaker for overload protection and safety switch all in one  removing the need for old fuses.  

The benefits of Multiple RCD Safety Switch Installation. As this type of RCD switch is more compact it also allows you to have the RCD fitted in a multiple format.  That means installing an individual RCD switch to each of the  power and light circuits of your home or business.   Should a fault occur  only that one circuit will trip off.    The disruption to your power and your business whether it be in the home or office is kept to a bare minimum as all the other power and light circuits remain on.

It is now common to find numerous  RCD switches  fitted to modern switchboards.  We can give you a FREE QUOTE on replacing all your old fuses with the latest RCD switches and circuit breakers. We also install solid state Surge Protectors to the mains power in order to protect all of your electronic appliances from electrical storms and voltage spikes.
