EIC "rated time delay" value for a 61008 type-s

psychicwarrior

good day folks

 

out of interest, if anyone has filled in the “rated time delay” entry on an EIC for a 61008 type-s RCD main switch,  what was the value  (presuming the standard has a set value/range)  used and where from ?

 

regards

Habs

    100A 100mA Time Delayed RCD
    2 Pole

     

    100mA time delay

    Suitable for use when total RCD protection is required to supplement
    the system earthing and where local 30mA RCDs are used to give
    additional protection against direct contact.

    The time delay RCD will discriminate with the 30mA RCD.

    Wylex
    • All Wylex RCDs incorporate a filtering device to provide protection against transient surges in the supply to the unit, thus reducing the occurrence of unwanted tripping.
    • Wylex RCDs must never be used as the sole method of direct contact protection, but are invaluable in providing supplementary protection in high risk environments where damage may occur.
    • The operating dolly may be locked in either the ON or OFF position without affecting the ability of the trip mechanism to operate, i.e. the RCD is 'trip-free'. It is not possible to hold the contacts closed when a fault condition exists.
    • When in the OFF position a contact gap of 4 mm is present, enabling Wylex RCDs to be used as isolating switches where appropriate.

    Well, if the S type is slower in operation than 30mA instant types downstream, who cares about the actual trip time. As long as it is slower than say 40mS or longer?
