⚠️ What Is a Type B RCD?
A Type B RCD detects AC, pulsating DC, and smooth DC residual currents. It is required in circuits with equipment such as:
- Electric vehicle (EV) charging points
- Solar PV inverters
- Variable-speed drives or UPS systems
This level of protection ensures fault currents aren’t missed in systems where DC leakage is likely.
