All-Current Sensitive Residual Current Devices (Rcds) (Type B) - Mennekes AMAXX Notice D'utilisation

Plug symbol
You must be able to plug the plug of the consumer
completely into the receptacle. A suitable plug is character-
ized by its firm seat (similar to a "locking in place") in the
receptacle.
Thus proper contacting of the plug and socket connection is
ensured.
Schuko plugs must have a perimeter ridge on the plug
®
enclosure to achieve the required seal and to comply with
the maintain the protection class in plug-in status.
• Only connect consumers with suitable plug and socket
connections on the receptacle combination.
• Do not connect any consumers with right angle plugs or
AC adapters on the device.
6.7.2 All current sensitive residual current devices
(RCDs) (type B)
The receptacle combinations can be customer-specifically
equipped with a residual current device (RCD) "type B" that
is only intended for very specific application cases and also
must only be used for the specific application cases.
The following instructions must always be complied with for
safe use.
The devices in question are marked with a sticker (see Fig.).

• Before using the device have a qualified electrician check
the electrical installation to determine whether the device,
or the consumers to be connected, can be operated
together.
• Contact a qualified electrician
Electrical equipment or consumers (e.g., welding systems,
pumps, vibrating machines, etc.) that are controlled via
a frequency converter can generate smooth DC residual
currents.
Off-the-shelf residual current devices with an AC trigger-
ing characteristic, or that are type A, cannot detect these
residual currents; this means that proper triggering of the
residual current device is not ensured and the risk of electric
shock increases if there is a fault.
This means that electrical equipment or type B consumers
with residual current devices must not be connected and
operated downstream of type A residual current devices!
