Residual current operated circuit-breakers for household and similar use. Particular requirements for devices with flat quick-connect terminations | Status: Current

1 Scope This document applies to devices equipped with flat quick-connect terminations consisting of a male tab with nominal width 6,3 mm and thickness 0,8 mm, to be used with a mating female connector for connecting electrical copper conductors according to the manufacturer's instructions, for rated currents up to and including 16 A.

NOTE The use of flat quick-connect terminations for rated currents up to and including 20 A is accepted in BE, FR, IT, ES, PT and US.

This document cannot be used alone but is intended to be applied together with the applicable product standard in which it is referred to. The connectable electrical copper conductors are flexible, having a cross-sectional area up to and including 4 mm2, or rigid-stranded, having a cross-sectional area up to and including 2,5 mm2 (AWG equal to or greater than 12). This document applies exclusively to products having male tabs as an integral part of the device.
