Table of Contents1. Genesis of residual current devices 2. Construction of modern residual current devices 3. Types, parameters, and reliability of residual current devices 4. Protection against electric shock 5. Protection against fire 6. Requirements of standards with reference to application of residual current devices 7. Backup protection of residual current devices 8. Circuits with nonsinusoidal currents 9. Earth fault loop impedance measurement in circuits with residual current devices 10. Residual current devices in circuits with surge protective devices 11. Immunity of residual current devices to the impulse leakage currents 12. Verification of residual current devices Summary Appendix A Examples of RCD selection Appendix B Standards regarding residual current devices’ performance, application, and operationReviews"""This book would be of most interest to our readers who want to learn abot the operations and details of RCDs. It contains very good technical details and good discussions relating to applicable standardrs. Note that this book is exclusively focused on RCDs and does not cover GFCIs. Although the operating principals between RCDs and GFCIs are the same, the threshold requiremenets differ between international standards and US standards. Nonetheless, this is a very useful book for learning about these very important electrical safety devices."" --IEEE - Electrical Insulation Magazine" This book would be of most interest to our readers who want to learn abot the operations and details of RCDs.
