Data record gloss.residual-current.usage

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: Medium

An installation tester checks a residual current device by injecting a residual current and timing the trip, and a ramp test raises the residual current in steps from a fraction of the rated value until the device trips; the tester is set for the type of device under test, since types responding to alternating, pulsating direct or smooth direct current and time-delayed types are tested differently.
