WHAT IS A SAFETY RCD?
Your Masterplug Safety in-line RCD continuously monitors the power supply to an electrical appliance and cuts off the power
within 40 milliseconds if an earth current fault is detected. This is fast enough to prevent a fatal electrical shock.
Electrical appliances can become dangerous if the wiring becomes loose, if they or their power cords become damaged or if
they get wet. Electrocution is also possible if fingers, wet hair or other conductive bodies enter the appliance. In all cases your
Masterplug safety in-line RCD will instantly cut off the electricity before you or a member of your family receive a potentially
fatal shock.

IN-LINE RCD
The in-line RCD has been designed to be for heavy duty applications. The water resistant casing of the unit is rated at IP 65.
To maintain the IP 65 weather proof rating of the device, plugs, sockets and connectors of an equivalent rating must be used.
The RCD is a Non-latching RCD type. This means when power to the RCD is disconnected, due to a power cut or switching
of the mains, the RCD will trip & have to be re-set when power returns. The RCD will need to be re-set before power returns
to the connected equipment. Ideal for power tools and garden equipment.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

or by removing the appropriate fuse.
