Circuit breakers

xPole PFIM Type F residual current circuit breaker

Eaton offers a complete range of compact residual current devices for fault current/residual current and additional protection, in residential and small commercial applications.

The Type F circuit breakers are a special variant of type A devices with modified frequency characteristics. This Type F RCD complies with IEC/EN 62423 and provides safe and reliable protection against sinusoidal residual currents and pulsating DC fault currents. It can also handle residual currents with mixed frequencies of up to 1 kHz (10, 50, 10000 Hz) as per IEC/EN 62423.

Compliant to
IEC/EN 62423
current withstand capability
3 kA
DC residual currents
up to 10 mA

Core features

  • Reduction of nuisance tripping thanks to time delay
  • Comprehensive range of accessories
  • Increased protection in applications with 1-phase frequency converters thanks to the detection of mixed frequencies
  • Contact position indicator red-green
  • Can be positioned at the top or bottom of the busbar, the installation position does not affect the functioning
  • Twin-purpose terminal (lift/open-mouthed) with mains connection on either side and free terminal space despite installed busbar
  • Z-A universal tripping signal switch and Z-HK auxiliary switch can be retrofitted

Reliable protection for machines

These products provide an optimal system and additional protection against residual earth leakage currents for a wide range of applications by offering different tripping characteristics to cater for various electrical systems and components that can generate. Available in a comprehensive range of nominal current values and with optional accessories.

Suitable type

Tripping is line voltage-independent. Consequently, the RCD is suitable for “fault current/residual current protection” and “additional protection” within the the meaning of the applicable installation rules.

Increased protection in applications

Increased protection in applications with 1-phase frequency converter due to the detection of mixed frequencies and higher load capacity with smooth DC fault currents up to 10 mA.
