Why Choose the Finder 015.0.230 Leakage Current Suppression Module?

The Finder 015.0.230 is a compact leakage current suppression module designed to prevent LED lamps from remaining faintly illuminated when an electronic dimmer is switched off. Developed as an accessory for the Finder Series 15 dimmer range, this module absorbs residual current that can cause unwanted LED glowing, helping ensure that compatible lighting installations switch off completely.

Modern LED lamps can be sensitive to very small electrical currents, particularly when connected to electronic dimmers. In some installations, residual current passing through the lighting circuit can cause LED lamps to glow faintly even when the dimmer is in its OFF position. The Finder 015.0.230 residual current suppression module provides a practical solution by absorbing this current and reducing unwanted illumination.

Designed for 230 V AC lighting applications, the Finder 015.0.230 absorbs approximately 0.8 W at 230 V AC and features a compact body measuring approximately 28 × 15 × 5 mm. Its small dimensions allow convenient integration into suitable lighting installations, making it an effective accessory for electricians, lighting installers and building automation professionals.

Reliable Residual Current Suppression for LED Lighting

The Finder 015.0.230 addresses a common issue encountered when modern LED lamps are connected to electronic dimmers. Because LED lighting requires relatively little current to produce visible illumination, small residual currents can sometimes cause lamps to remain dimly lit after the dimmer has been switched off. The suppression module absorbs this unwanted current, helping the connected LED lamps achieve a complete OFF state.

The module is designed for use with Finder Series 15 electronic dimming systems, including compatible 230 V AC phase-control dimmers. Its compact construction allows it to be incorporated into suitable lighting circuit arrangements without complex electronic configuration. The module is connected according to the relevant Finder wiring diagram, and installation should be performed by a suitably qualified electrician. It is a residual current suppression accessory rather than a standalone dimmer or a protective circuit breaker.

Typical Applications

  • LED lighting circuits experiencing faint illumination when switched off.
  • Finder Series 15 electronic dimmer installations.
  • Residential LED downlights and ceiling lighting.
  • Commercial LED lighting and architectural illumination.
  • Hotel, office and retail lighting control systems.
  • Building automation installations using compatible Finder dimmers.
  • Lighting maintenance and troubleshooting of LED afterglow.
  • Retrofitted LED lighting circuits with residual current issues.
  • Professional electrical installations requiring improved LED switch-off behaviour.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Finder 015.0.230 used for?

The Finder 015.0.230 is a leakage current suppression module designed to prevent LED lamps from glowing faintly when a compatible electronic dimmer is switched off.

Why do LED lights sometimes stay on when the dimmer is switched off?

Some LED lamps are sensitive to small residual currents flowing through electronic lighting circuits. These currents can cause the LEDs to remain faintly illuminated even when the dimmer is in its OFF position. The Finder 015.0.230 absorbs residual current to help eliminate this unwanted glowing.

What voltage is the Finder 015.0.230 designed for?

The module is designed for 230 V AC lighting applications and is intended for use with compatible electronic dimming systems.

How much power does the Finder 015.0.230 absorb?

According to Finder technical information, the module absorbs approximately 0.8 W at 230 V AC while suppressing residual current in the lighting circuit.

Is the Finder 015.0.230 compatible with Finder Series 15 dimmers?

Yes. The 015.0.230 is a Finder Series 15 accessory designed for residual current suppression in compatible electronic dimmer installations. The specific dimmer model and wiring arrangement should be checked against Finder installation instructions.

What are the dimensions of the Finder 015.0.230?

The module has a compact body measuring approximately 28 × 15 × 5 mm, excluding its connecting leads.

Does the Finder 015.0.230 control LED brightness?

No. The 015.0.230 is not a dimmer and does not independently control lighting brightness. It is an accessory designed to absorb residual current and prevent unwanted LED illumination when a compatible dimmer is switched off.

Does the Finder 015.0.230 require programming?

No. The Finder 015.0.230 is a passive residual current suppression accessory and does not require software programming or electronic configuration. It must be installed according to the applicable Finder connection diagram.

Can the Finder 015.0.230 be used to fix LED afterglow?

Yes. The module is specifically designed to address LED afterglow caused by residual current in compatible dimmer-controlled lighting circuits. Other causes of unwanted illumination may require additional electrical investigation.
