Branch circuit protection

Risk of electric shock and fire from a network with an excessively high impedance
Excessively low short-circuit currents can lead to the protective devices not tripping or tripping
too late, and so causing electric shock or a fire.
● In the case of a conductor-conductor or conductor-ground short-circuit, ensure that the
● You must use an additional residual-current device (RCD) if a conductor-ground short
Risk of electric shock and fire from a network with an impedance that is too low.
Excessively high short-circuit currents can lead to the protective devices not being able to
interrupt these short-circuit currents and being destroyed, and so causing electric shock or a
fire.
● Ensure that the uninfluenced short-circuit current at the line terminal of the inverter does

circuit does not reach the short-circuit current required for the protective device to respond.
The required short-circuit current can be too low, especially for TT systems.
WARNING
not exceed the breaking capacity (SCCR or Icc) of the protective device used.
