IMPOR AN – FOR YOUR PRO EC ION.
Electricity is dangerous and an RCD must not be used as a substitute for normal precautionary measures. Always unplug from mains
supply before any inspection or repair to equipment. Do not allow children to tamper with electrical devices.
This device will protect against live and neutral leakage faults to earth, it will not protect against electric shock due to contact with
both conductors, short circuits between live and neutral, or a fault in the wiring supplying this device.
Should your PowerBreaker RCD socket, trip when first powered, repeatedly trip with an appliance connected or fail to trip when
tested in accordance with the instructions, Do ot Use, please consult a qualified Electrician. Type A RCDs are suitable for use with
single phase supplies and applications with electronic components, they are also suitable for type AC RCD applications with
Resistive, Capacitive, Inductive loads generally without any electronic components.
Type AC RCD should not be fitted upstream of a Type A as the load characteristics of a Type A RCD could then impair operation of
the Type AC RCD.
his socket has been designed for storage and use between -5°C and +40°C and at an altitude
of no greater than 2000 metres above sea level. Care must be taken not to subject the unit to
misuse, such as abnormal pollution by smoke, chemical or flammable fumes, salt laden spray,
prolonged periods of high humidity or other abnormal conditions.
