    ◆Auto mode
    In automatic gear mode, the gear values and floating values are:

    Gauge reading (mA) Floating value (mA)
    50 25
    100 50
    200 100
    300 150
    400 200
    500 250
    600 300
    800 400
    1000 -

    When the residual current exceeds the floating threshold of a setting without reaching its activation level and remains stable for 60 seconds, the setting is raised by one level. This process continues until reaching the maximum setting. Conversely, when the residual current falls below the floating threshold of the next lower setting and remains stable for 120 seconds, the setting is lowered by one level. This sequence repeats until the minimum setting is reached. Taking the 'Auto 2' setting with an initial residual current of 100mA as an example: When the circuit breaker is energized, the setting automatically resets to 300mA. If the residual current increases above 150mA and remains stable for 60 seconds, the setting changes to 500mA. When the residual current decreases below 150mA and stays stable for 120 seconds, the setting adjusts to 200mA.

    ◆Autoreclose circuit breaker
    When the residual current exceeds the set trip current threshold, the circuit breaker will trip. After 20-60 seconds, it can automatically reclose, though manual reclosing is unrestricted. If the fault current disappears within 5 seconds after reclosing, the operation is successful and the breaker resumes normal operation. If the fault persists, the breaker will trip again and remain locked, preventing automatic reclosing. In such cases, manual reclosing must be performed.

    ◆Over-voltage protection
    When the line phase voltage exceeds the overvoltage protection setting, the circuit breaker trips. Once the voltage returns to normal, the circuit breaker automatically recloses and resumes operation. The overvoltage protection setting ranges from 250V to 300V, with a factory default of 275V. Users can adjust or disable the protection as needed.

    ◆Undervoltage protection
    When the phase voltage falls below the undervoltage protection setting, the circuit breaker trips. Once the voltage returns to normal, the breaker automatically recloses. The undervoltage protection range is 145V to 200V, with a factory default of 145V. Users can adjust or disable the protection as needed.

    ◆Phase loss protection function
    When a phase is missing at the power supply end of the line, the circuit breaker protection trips. When the line is restored to normal voltage, the circuit breaker can be automatically closed and put into operation.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    What is the primary function of the Smart Reclosing RCD Circuit Breaker?
    It provides comprehensive electrical protection, including residual current (leakage) protection, overload, short-circuit, overvoltage, undervoltage, and phase loss protection. It features automatic reclosing to restore power automatically after transient faults.
    How does the automatic reclosing function handle persistent line faults?
    If a fault persists after the circuit breaker automatically recloses (within 20-60 seconds), the breaker will trip again and remain locked in the open position. Automatic reclosing is then disabled, and manual intervention is required to reset and close the breaker.
    Can the protection parameters and settings be adjusted online?
    Yes, the protective parameters—including residual current limits, overload thresholds, overvoltage/undervoltage limits, and delay times—can be configured, modified, and monitored online via the user-friendly LCD screen or communication interfaces.
    What standards does this circuit breaker comply with?
    The circuit breaker is designed and manufactured in compliance with GB/T14048.1-2012 (General principles for low-voltage switchgear), GB/T14048.2-2008 (Low-voltage circuit breakers), and GB/T17701-2008 (Equipment circuit breakers).
    Does this device support remote control and smart grid integration?
    Yes, the breaker features advanced network communication capabilities that support remote signaling, remote measurement, remote control, and remote parameter adjustment. Optional infrared communication is also supported.
