Why Choose the Chint NL1-100-2100/100-S Time Delayed Residual Current Device?
The Chint NL1-100-2100/100-S is a reliable time delayed residual current device (RCD) designed to provide selective earth leakage protection in residential, commercial and light industrial electrical installations. As part of the Chint NL1 RCCB series, it automatically disconnects the circuit when residual current faults are detected, helping protect people, equipment and property from electrical hazards.
This device is a 2 pole, S type time delayed RCD designed to provide discrimination with downstream residual current devices. The time delayed tripping characteristic helps reduce nuisance tripping and supports coordinated residual current protection in distribution boards, sub-main circuits and larger electrical installations.
With a rated current of 100 A and a residual operating current of 100 mA, the NL1-100-2100/100-S provides dependable earth leakage protection for higher capacity single-phase circuits. Its DIN rail mounting format enables quick, neat and secure installation in modern electrical enclosures.
Key Advantages
- Reliable 2 pole time delayed residual current device for selective earth leakage protection.
- 100 A rated current for higher capacity low voltage circuits.
- 100 mA residual operating current for leakage fault detection.
- S type time delayed operation supports discrimination with downstream RCDs.
- DIN rail mounting for fast installation in consumer units and distribution boards.
- Helps reduce nuisance tripping in coordinated electrical protection systems.
Key Features
- Chint NL1 series residual current circuit breaker.
- 100 A rated current.
- 100 mA residual operating current.
- 2 pole configuration.
- S type time delayed tripping characteristic.
- Residual current protection without over-current protection.
- DIN rail mounting for modular electrical assemblies.
- Compliant with IEC / EN 61008-1.
Selective Earth Leakage Protection for Electrical Installations
Time delayed residual current devices such as the Chint NL1-100-2100/100-S continuously monitor the difference between live and neutral current. When an earth leakage fault occurs, the device disconnects the circuit after a controlled delay, helping provide selectivity with downstream RCDs.
The NL1 series provides residual current protection only and should be installed alongside suitable over-current protection, such as an MCB or fuse. Its S type characteristic makes it particularly useful for upstream protection where discrimination and reduced nuisance tripping are important.
Typical Applications
- Consumer units and distribution boards.
- Commercial building circuits.
- Light industrial power distribution.
- Sub-main electrical circuits.
- Upstream RCD protection requiring selectivity.
- Electrical panels requiring dedicated residual current protection.
