What does RCB mean?
Residual Current Breaker (RCB) is a term used for devices that disconnects an electrical circuit that is designed to prevent electrocution by detecting the leakage current, typically 5 to 30 milliamperes. Residual Current Device (RCD) uses an electronic circuit to detect even the smallest imbalance between the live and neutral conductors and if it reaches a trigger level disconnects the circuit. RCDs are intended to operate within 25-40 milliseconds before the electric shock can drive the heart into ventricular fibrillation, the most common cause of death through electric shock.
