Adjustable Current Leakage Circuit Breaker ELCB is a device that can detect leakage in the circuit and automatically cut off the power supply. It is mainly used to protect personal safety and prevent electrical fires. When the leakage current in the circuit reaches or exceeds the preset value, the ELCB can quickly cut off the power supply, thus avoiding electric shock accidents and electrical fires. At the same time, it also has overload and short-circuit protection functions.

The operation of the Adjustable Current Leakage Circuit Breaker ELCB is based on the principle of the balance of currents. Under normal conditions, the currents in the Fire (L) and Zero (N) wires of an electrical circuit are equal. When a leakage occurs, part of the current in the fire wire flows through the human body or the grounding body to the earth, resulting in an imbalance of current in the fire wire and the zero wire. the ELCB detects this imbalance of current to recognize the leakage and automatically cuts off the power supply.
High safety: ELCB can quickly cut off the power supply, effectively preventing electric shock accidents and electrical fires.
High sensitivity: able to detect tiny leakage current to ensure the safe operation of the electrical system.
Good reliability: It is manufactured with advanced electronic technology and materials, and has good stability and durability.
Wide range of use: applicable to a variety of AC electrical systems, including home, industrial and commercial premises, etc.
Application: AC Type ELCB is widely used in a variety of places that require electrical safety protection, such as family homes, commercial buildings, industrial plants, etc.
Selection: When selecting the type, it is necessary to consider the rated voltage, rated current, leakage action current and other parameters of the electrical system to ensure the applicability and safety of ELCB. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the brand, quality, price and other factors of ELCB.
Precautions: When installing and using AC Type ELCB, you need to follow the relevant electrical safety codes and standards. At the same time, you need to regularly check the working status of ELCB to ensure its normal operation.
Maintenance: The ELCB should be cleaned and inspected regularly to avoid damage caused by dust and moisture. At the same time, the wiring and connections of the ELCB need to be checked regularly for looseness or damage to ensure the reliability of its electrical connections.
