The 30mA earth leakage sensitivity rating provides critical protection against electric shock, helping to minimise risks in environments where humans may be exposed to electrical circuits. This sensitivity level is particularly effective in preventing potential hazards by tripping when detecting harmful leakage currents.

The thermal-magnetic tripping mechanism operates by using a bimetallic strip that bends under excessive current, triggering the trip. It also employs a magnetic slug that responds to high inrush currents, ensuring that the device reacts promptly to both overload and short circuit conditions.

A breaking capacity of 6kA indicates the maximum current the device can interrupt without sustaining damage, providing assurance during fault conditions. This capability is vital for maintaining system integrity and protecting downstream equipment from damage under fault conditions.
