A Guide by MK Circuit Protection

In modern electrical installations, Residual Current Devices (RCDs) are critical for protecting against electric shock and fire hazards. At MK Circuit Protection, we offer a comprehensive range of RCDs with varying sensitivities (10mA, 30mA, 100mA, 300mA), ensuring compliance with the latest safety standards.

Key RCD Types & Their Applications

Why Choose MK Circuit Protection RCDs?

1.Premium Contact Technology

  • Silver-plated T2 copper reduces contact resistance and improves heat dissipation, lowering temperature rise under load for enhanced current rating and long-term reliability.

2.Superior Arc Protection

  • Silver-tungsten (moving contact) + silver-graphite (fixed contact) delivers high resistance to welding & erosion, even under inductive/capacitive loads – ensuring 10kA breaking capacity and 10,000+ electrical operations.

3.Foolproof Modular Construction

  • Pre-assembled CT & trip unit eliminates installation errors, preventing PCB or component damage for consistent, reliable performance.

4.Full Compliance & Safety

  • Meets BS EN 61008 and BS 7671 requirements, guaranteeing industry-standard protection for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

 

Whether you’re designing a residential system or an industrial installation, selecting the right RCD type ensures safety and reliability.
