General RCD Operation
Always test the RCD before use.
To test:
RESET – press the grey/ blue button marked Reset (R), the status
indicator should show red.
TEST – press the red button marked Test (T), status indicator
should show black. This indicates that the RCD has been tripped
and power has been disconnected from the outlet.
RESET – press the grey/ blue button marked Reset (R) again, the
status indicator should show red.
If all the above operations work satisfactorily, the RCD is safe for
use. If the procedure is not completed satisfactorily do not use
the RCD and seek professional advice.
In applications such as hand driers it may not be practical to
expect each user to test before use. In this case we suggest an
appropriate person applies the test routine twice a day.
To use:
After satisfactorily testing the RCD, any connected appliance
may be switched on, and used in the confi dence that the user is
protected from electric shock by rapid disconnection.
If the RCD trips:
Turn the appliance switch off, press the Reset R button and note
that the status indicator turns red. Switch the appliance on and
if the RCD trips again, switch off the appliance and do not use
it, as it may be faulty. Seek professional advice.
