AFDD Trip times

HI, just wondering how people are testing domestic AFDD'S 

I have been testing 30ma single pole AFDDs and im getting rcd disconnection times of roughly 80ms on 1x.

Is this normal? they consistently come up with around 80ms which is obviosly over the permissable 40ms.


my question is am i testing these wrong? is there a different way of procedure to test these devices? they are all the wylex brand if thats any help.


many thanks in advance for your responses

  • 80 mS is no cause for concern at 1x as stated before 300mS for 1x with a modern RCD/RCBO
