Click Scolmore has announced the launch of the Elucian Type B Heat Pump (HP) Bi-Directional RCCB, a high specification protective device designed to protect people and equipment by disconnecting the power supply when excess leakage current to earth is detected.

The new Elucian Type B HP RCCB builds on the capabilities of a standard Type B device by delivering enhanced sensitivity at higher frequencies. While a conventional Type B RCCB detects pure direct current from 0Hz upwards and alternating current leakage up to 1kHz, the Type B HP extends detection capability to 20kHz. This significantly broader detection range provides reliable protection in installations where high frequency leakage currents are present.

Enhancing Elucian’s growing circuit protection portfolio offerings, this advanced RCCB helps prevent electric shock and potential fire hazards, making it suitable for advanced residual current protection for modern high-performance electrical installations. Designed to detect high-frequency and DC leakage currents that standard RCCBs might miss, the new Type B HP provides reliable protection for these increasingly complex circuits.

The Elucian Type B RCCB is suitable for use across a wide range of applications, including EV charging installations, HVAC systems, elevators, pumps and heat pumps, and CNC machinery.
