RCD or GFCI trip test
Self-test RCDs perform and log the push-button test; where they are not fitted the quarterly push is still a person. The trip-time measurement stays with the periodic inspection either way.
What does a rCD or GFCI trip test involve?
RCD or GFCI trip test checks: trip time at rated residual current (ms), push-button test result. Observed by push-button test by the user; multifunction tester for the timed test. The push-button test is user maintenance and self-testing RCDs perform it automatically; the timed trip test at the periodic inspection is part of the statutory installation test.
- Condition that replaces the interval
- Yes for the push-button test where auto-test RCDs are fitted; the timed trip test stays with the periodic inspection.
- Reading that proves it
- Trip time at rated residual current (ms), push-button test result
- Why the interval stays
- The push-button test is user maintenance and self-testing RCDs perform it automatically; the timed trip test at the periodic inspection is part of the statutory installation test.
- Evidence an auditor accepts
- RCD test log per device with the trip time and date
- First move
- Record the trip time in milliseconds, not pass or fail; a device drifting toward its limit is what the trend shows.
