Sample questions

  1. 01What does RCD stand for?
    • A.Residual Circuit Detector
    • B.Residual Current Device
    • C.Remote Circuit Disconnector
    • D.Rapid Current Detector

    Why: RCD stands for Residual Current Device.

  2. 02How does an RCD detect a fault?
    • A.By measuring the loop impedance of the earth path
    • B.By monitoring the voltage between line and earth
    • C.By sensing overcurrent in the line conductor only
    • D.By detecting imbalance between live and neutral currents

    Why: An RCD detects imbalance between the current flowing in the live and neutral conductors.

  3. 03What is the maximum disconnection time for a 30mA RCD at rated residual current?
    • A.300ms
    • B.1 second
    • C.200ms
    • D.40ms

    Why: A general type RCD must disconnect within 300ms at its rated residual current (IΔn).
