Features of Arcontek Smart Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI/AFDD with ELCB/GFCI function)

 

- Overload / Arc Fault / Ground Fault

- LED indicator for the cause of trip

- Microprocessor for optimal detection algorithm

- Double protection of bimetal and magnetic structure

- Communication function for remote control and monitoring system

 

Electric fires still occur in places where existing earth leakage/wiring circuit breakers are installed,because these existing circuit breakers do not have a function to detect dangerous electric spark (arc) accidents.

 

Electric spark (arc) accidents are caused by damage to electric wires or electrical products,outlets,extension cords,insulation breakdown or improper installation of electric wires,connection defects,and aging. The fact that about 80% of electric fires are caused by arcs is well known both domestically and globally.

 

An earth leakage breaker is installed for electric shock to a person,and a circuit breaker is installed to protect the equipment,but Arcontek's smart arc circuit interrupter (Smart AFCI / AFDD) detects not only electric leakage and overload but also arc faults that the conventional circuit breakers (ELCB,GFCI,MCCB) cannot detect. This is a state-of-the-art electrical safety device installed to prevent not only electric shock but also electric fire. It is an innovative product that can replace the existing ground fault circuit breaker.
