  2. Arc-fault circuit interrupter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc-fault_circuit_interrupter

    This AFCI (the circuit breaker with the yellow label) is an older generation AFCI circuit breaker. The current (as of 2013) devices are referred to as "combination type." An arc-fault circuit interrupter ( AFCI ) or arc-fault detection device ( AFDD ) [ 1 ] is a circuit breaker that breaks the circuit when it detects the electric arcs that are ...

    The type 15 plug and socket has 3 round pins of 4 mm diameter, plus 2 flat pins (for L2 and L3). It is designed for three phase applications and is rated at 10 A, 250 V/440 V. The socket will also accept types 11 and 12 plugs, and the Europlug. The type 25 plug and socket has 3 rectangular pins, 4 mm x 5 mm, plus 2 flat pins (for L2 and L3).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device, more specifically a form of Earth-leakage circuit breaker, that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through line and neutral conductors of a circuit is not equal (the term residual relating to the imbalance), therefore ...

  5. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

    Single-pole circuit breakers feed 120 V circuits from one of the 120 V buses within the panel, or two-pole circuit breakers feed 240-volt circuits from both buses. 120 V circuits are the most common, and used to power NEMA 1 and NEMA 5 outlets, and most residential and light commercial direct-wired lighting circuits.

    3–5 times rated current I n, e.g. a nominally 10 A device will trip at 30–50 A C 5–10 times I n: D 10–14 times I n: K 8–12 times I n. For the protection of loads that cause frequent short-duration (approximately 400 ms to 2 s) current peaks in normal operation Z 2–3 times I n for durations on the order of tens of seconds.

  7. Ring circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_circuit

    The ring starts at the consumer unit (also known as fuse box, distribution board, or breaker box), visits each socket in turn, and then returns to the consumer unit. The ring is fed from a fuse or circuit breaker in the consumer unit. Ring circuits are commonly used in British wiring with socket-outlets taking fused plugs to BS 1363. Because ...
