RCD Passive 1 Gang Metal Fused Connection Unit
Timeguard RCD16MLN Valiance+
Enhanced Safety with Dual Flag RCD Technology
The Timeguard RCD16MLN Valiance+® RCD Passive 1 Gang Metal Fused Connection Unit provides reliable electrical protection, ensuring enhanced safety for appliances and installations. Featuring Dual Flag Technology, this RCD unit offers clear visual status indicators, allowing users to easily identify power conditions.
Compliant with BS7288:2016, this Type A RCD is engineered to reduce nuisance tripping caused by RF interference from mobile devices and electronic equipment. Unlike LED indicators, the mechanical flag system offers consistent, long-lasting performance by visually displaying whether the power supply is ON (Red Flag) or OFF (Green Flag).
Designed for residential, commercial, and industrial installations, this passive (latching) RCD automatically restores power after a supply interruption, making it ideal for essential appliances. It also provides protection against lost neutral faults and pulsating DC earth faults, ensuring maximum electrical safety.
