DESCRIPTION

The 15.927 compact earth leakage circuit breakers detect and interrupt earth (ground) faults. They are VDE approved for the European system of protecting people, animals, equipment and property from dangerous line-to-ground and shock hazard currents. US applications include ground-fault protection of equipment (GFPE) using the 30mA fault current ratings, especially when high distributed capacitance or other leakages cause excessive nuisance trips at lower fault currents.
