Neutral line fault detector NFP-1801?
<< < (7/7)
f4eru:
Seems like an LC network, i.e defined impedance that is connected between neutral and PE ?
then it triggers an RCD if the neutral deviates from PE.
Works only of course if the defect is after the bonding point, or if the PE comes from a separate earth rod...

Could it be that the LC is tuned to 50Hz, so that normal sine does not pass, but HF/harmonics of DC will trigger the RCD ?
I would have expected more like a 25V VDR or so.


In any case, it's probably not nice, because injecting currents into the RCD can make it inefficient against it's original purpose....

there is no current until it is N fault, and when it is it is not big. so rcd works as it is intended
