RCD Consumer Units: A Simple Guide

Are you looking to enhance the safety and protection of your electrical circuits? Consider installing an RCD consumer unit! In this guide, we'll explore everything you need to know about RCD consumer units, including different types, installation methods, and frequently asked RCD questions. Whether you're a homeowner, electrician, or contractor, understanding the importance and functionality of RCD consumer units is crucial for maintaining electrical safety standards.

 

What is an RCD Consumer Unit?

An RCD (Residual Current Device) consumer unit, is a type of distribution board designed to provide enhanced protection against electrical faults and hazards. It incorporates one or more RCDs, which constantly monitor the flow of electrical current and quickly disconnect the circuit if it detects any imbalance, such as current leakage or fault currents.

 

What is a Dual RCD Consumer Unit?

A Dual RCD Consumer Unit is designed to offer increased protection by incorporating two RCDs (Residual Current Devices) within a single distribution board. RCDs are safety devices that constantly monitor the flow of electrical current in circuits. If they detect any imbalance, such as current leakage or fault currents due to damaged wiring or faulty appliances, they quickly disconnect the circuit to prevent electric shock or fire. Although more expensive, they are high-quality, life-saving pieces of safety that are very important!
