An Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) (now referred to as residual current circuit breaker) is a safety device used in electrical installations with high earth impedance to prevent shock. History ELCBs were mainly used on TT earthing systems. Nowadays‚ ELCBs have been mostly replaced by residual-current devices (RCDs). However many ELCBs are still in use. Early ELCBs responded to sine wave fault currents‚ but not to rectified fault current. Over time‚ filtering against nuisance trips has also

Setting Up a Shock-Proof House Two years back when on one fine morning‚ I was taking my daughter to school in our car‚ we discovered that once a beautiful large house was now burnt black due to electrocution. Out of utmost dismay and wonder‚ my daughter asked me – “Papa‚ what has happened?”‚ and I provided her few explanations to what could have happened and how it could have happened. But her inquisitiveness was not resolved‚ and every other day in the morning‚ when we passed by that house
