(Main)Type F and type B residual current operated circuit-breakers with and without integral overcurrent protection for household and similar uses (IEC 62423:2009, modified + corrigendum Dec. 2011)
Type F and type B residual current operated circuit-breakers with and without integral overcurrent protection for household and similar uses (IEC 62423:2009, modified + corrigendum Dec. 2011)
The scope of IEC 61008-1 and IEC 61009-1 applies with the following additions. This standard specifies requirements and tests for Type F and Type B RCDs (Residual Current Devices). Requirements and tests given in this standard are in addition to the requirements of Type A residual current devices. This standard can only be used together with IEC 61008-1 and IEC 61009-1. Type F RCCBs (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) and Type F RCBOs (Residual current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent protection) with rated frequency 50 Hz or 60 Hz are intended for installations when frequency inverters are supplied between phase and neutral or phase and earthed middle conductor and are able to provide protection in case of alternating residual sinusoidal at the rated frequency, pulsating direct residual currents and composite residual currents that may occur. Type B RCCBs and Type B RCBOs are able to provide protection in case of alternating residual sinusoidal currents up to 1 000 Hz, pulsating direct residual currents and smooth direct residual currents. RCDs according to this standard are not intended to be used in d.c. supply systems. Further requirements and tests for products to be used in situations where the residual current was not intended to be covered in IEC 61008-1 or IEC 61009-1 are under consideration. For the purpose of manufacturer’s declaration or verification of conformity, type tests should be carried out in test sequences in compliance with Annex A, Annex B, Annex C or Annex D of this standard. The complete test sequence for type test of Type F RCCBs and Type F RCBOs is given in Tables A.1 and B.1 respectively. The complete test sequence for type test of Type

Interrupteurs automatiques à courant différentiel résiduel de type B et de type F avec et sans protection contre les surintensités incorporée pour usages domestiques et analogues ( (IEC 62423:2009, modified + corrigendum Dec. 2011)CEI 62423:2009, modifiée)
Les domaines d'application de la CEI 61008-1 et de la CEI 61009-1 s'appliquent avec les additions suivantes. La CEI 62423:2009 spécifie les exigences et les essais pour les DDR (dispositif de protection à courant différentiel résiduel) de Type B et de Type F. Les exigences et les essais donnés dans la présente norme complètent les exigences des dispositifs à courant différentiel résiduel de Type A. La présente norme ne peut être utilisée que conjointement à la CEI 61008-1 et à la CEI 61009-1. Les ID (interrupteur différentiel sans protection contre les surintensités incorporée) de Type F et les DD (interrupteur différentiel avec protection contre les surintensités incorporée) de Type F de fréquence assignée 50 Hz ou 60 Hz sont destinés à des installations dans lesquelles les convertisseurs de fréquence sont alimentés entre phase et neutre ou entre phase et conducteur milieu mis à la terre et sont aptes à assurer la protection en cas d'apparition de courant différentiel alternatif sinusoïdal à la fréquence assignée, de courant différentiel continu pulsé et de courant différentiel composé. Les ID de Type B et les DD de Type B sont aptes à assurer la protection en cas de courants différentiels résiduels alternatifs sinusoïdaux jusqu'à 1 000 Hz, de courants différentiels résiduels continus pulsés et de courants différentiels résiduels continus lissés. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition publiée en 2007 dont elle constitue une révision technique. Les changements par rapport à la première édition sont les suivants:
- des exigences et essais ont été introduits pour le DDR de Type F;
- des exigences et essais ont été introduits pour le DDR à deux pôles de Type B;
- de nouvelles exigences et de nouveaux essais supplémentaires pour les DDR de Type B ont été introduits pour couvrir aussi les exigences et essais pour le Type F.
Odklopniki na preostali tok tipov F in B z vgrajeno nadtokovno zaščito ali brez nje za gospodinjsko in podobno rabo (IEC 62423:2009, spremenjen + popravek dec. 2011)
Na področje uporabe standardov IEC 61008-1 in IEC 61009-1 spadajo tudi naslednji dodatki. Ta standard navaja zahteve in preskuse za zaščitne naprave na preostali (residualni) tok (RCD) tipa F in B. Zahteve in preskusi, ki so podani v tem standardu, so dodatek k zahtevam za zaščitne naprave na preostali (residualni) tok tipa A. Ta standard se lahko uporablja samo skupaj s standardoma IEC 61008-1 in IEC 61009-1. Odklopniki RCCB (odklopniki na preostali (residualni) tok) tipa F in odklopniki RCBO (odklopniki na preostali (residualni) tok z vgrajeno nadtokovno zaščito) z naznačeno frekvenco 50 ali 60 Hz so namenjeni za naprave, kjer so frekvenčni razsmerniki napajani med faznim in nevtralnim ali med faznim in ozemljenim srednjim vodnikom in lahko omogočajo zaščito v primeru, da pride do izmeničnih sinusoidnih residualnih tokov na naznačeni frekvenci, enosmernih utripajočih residualnih tokov in sestavljenih residualnih tokov. Odklopniki RCCB tipa B in odklopniki RCBO tipa B omogočajo zaščito v primeru izmeničnih sinusoidnih residualnih tokov do 1 000 Hz, enosmernih utripajočih residualnih tokov in mehkih enosmernih residualnih tokov. Zaščitne naprave na preostali (residualni) tok v skladu s tem standardom niso namenjene uporabi v enosmerno napajanih sistemih. Nadaljnje zahteve in preskusi za izdelke, ki se uporabljajo v primerih, ko residualni tok ni namenjen obravnavi v standardih IEC 61008-1 in IEC 61009-1, so v obravnavi. Za potrebe izjave proizvajalca ali preverjanja skladnosti bi morali biti tipski preskusi izvedeni v zaporedjih, ki so v skladu z dodatki A, B, C ali D k temu standardu. Popolno zaporedje preskusov za tipski preskus odklopnikov RCCB tipa F in odklopnikov RCBO tipa F je podano v preglednicah A.1 in B.1. Popolno zaporedje preskusov za tipski preskus odklopnikov RCCB tipa B in odklopnikov RCBO tipa B je podano v preglednicah C.1 in D.1.

(normative)
Number of samples to be submitted and test sequences
to be applied for verification of conformity for Type B RCBOs
Verification of conformity may be made
– by the manufacturer for the purpose of suppliers declaration (13.5.1 of ISO/IEC Guide 2);
– by an independent body for certification (13.5.2 of ISO/IEC Guide 2).
According to the terminology of ISO/IEC Guide 2 the term "certification" can be used for the
second case only.
The tests are made according to Table D.1 below, where the tests in each sequence are
carried out in the order indicated.
The sampling procedure is given in A.2 to A.5 of EN 61009-1:2012.
