RCD (Residual Current Device) protection is essential for solar inverters to ensure the safety of people and property. It detects and disconnects the electrical circuit when it detects a leakage of current, which helps prevent electric shocks and fires. Many countries have regulations that require solar inverters to have RCD protection installed.
An RCD, or Residual Current Device, is a safety device that detects abnormal currents and automatically cuts off the power supply to prevent electric shocks or fires. In the case of solar inverters, an RCD can provide another layer of protection against faults or malfunctions that may occur within the system.
Residual Current Devices (RCDs) protect against electric shock and electrical fires by detecting leakage currents and disconnecting the circuit quickly. In solar inverter systems, RCDs must be capable of detecting DC residual fault currents, as traditional AC RCDs may not function properly in the presence of DC leakage.
There are three main types of RCDs (residual current devices) that can be used with solar inverters: Type AC, Type A, and Type B. Type AC RCDs are the most common and typically used in residential installations. They can detect both A=C and DC residual currents and provide protection against earth leakage in standard operating conditions.
Our standardized solar power and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
