4.2.2 Installation of Accessories Accessories include residual current transformers and magnetic rings. The remaining current transformer passes through all the phase lines and neutral lines, and is installed in the cabinet with a firm fixation. The secondary side wiring is connected to terminals 40 and 41 of the instrument through a magnetic ring.

device) cannot provide protection against insulation faults, and it is recommended to use RCD for protection. RCD selection: threshold setting ≤ is the ground conductor resistance; is the rated action value of the rated residual current protection device; Δn is the rated safety voltage of electrical equipment.

Characteristics: Fault current is very high and is limited only by the cable impedance; insulation fault may cause risk of electric shock and requires immediate disconnection of the line. Selection of residual current operated protective device (only for TN-S system): If a residual current operated protective device is used to provide automatic circuit disconnection protection for TN-S system, the following conditions should be met: ...

The inherent leakage current is generally caused by the low insulation level between the phase conductor and the ground, or the presence of a filter (or capacitor) between the phase conductor and the ground. The inherent leakage current may be the leakage current of the power frequency or the leakage current of the harmonic.
