State ONE reason why the person does not receive a severe electric shock when the earth leakage current flows through their body? (b) A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) protects a 230V final subcircuit. What causes a RCCB to trip if an earth leakage fault occurs on a 230V final subcircuit. (c) Explain why a RCCB does not operate when there is a short-circuit between active (phase) and neutral in a 230V final subcircuit. 12
13 Question 5 continued (d) (i) State the maximum permitted rated residual current of an RCD installed for personal protection in a medical-electrical installation.
