GADITES GAFDD-2P 40A Arc Fault Detection Device, 2 Pole AFDD, 230V AC, 30mA Leakage Protection, 6kA Short Circuit Capacity, DIN Rail Mount, Test & Reset
ARC FAULT DETECTION & PROTECTION
GADITES GAFDD-2P is a 2 Pole Arc Fault Detection Device (AFDD) designed to detect and distinguish dangerous series, parallel and grounding arc faults and initiate a trip when the fault conditions meet the device criteria.
MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
Combines arc-fault detection with 30mA residual-current leakage protection, overcurrent and short-circuit protection, with overvoltage detection described in the product documentation. Designed as an integrated protection device for electrical distribution circuits.
40A | 230V AC | 2 POLE | 6kA
Rated 40A (C40) for 230V AC, 50/60Hz operation. Features 2 Pole L+N configuration, IΔn 30mA residual current, and 6kA rated short-circuit capacity, making it suitable for compatible electrical distribution applications.
TEST, RUN, FAULT & RESET INDICATION
Built-in orange T TEST button, RUN and FAULT status indicators, red ON/OFF operating handle and grey RESET button provide convenient status checking and operation. The Test button is used to check the leakage-protection function according to the supplied instructions.
DIN RAIL INSTALLATION FOR ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION
Designed for installation in compatible distribution boards and electrical panels using a DIN-rail mounting arrangement. Suitable for residential, office, shop and commercial electrical distribution applications. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrical professional.
GADITES GAFDD-2P 40A ARC FAULT DETECTION DEVICE
Electrical systems can experience dangerous arc faults caused by conditions such as damaged conductors, loose connections or abnormal electrical paths. The GADITES GAFDD-2P is designed to identify characteristic arc-fault conditions and initiate disconnection when the detected condition meets its operating criteria.
INTELLIGENT ARC FAULT DETECTION
The GAFDD-2P uses an electronic detection system to analyze electrical signals and distinguish characteristic arc-fault conditions. The product documentation describes detection of:
- Series arc faults
- Parallel arc faults
- Grounding arc faults
The device combines arc detection with circuit protection functions in a compact electrical protection unit.
MULTIPLE PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
The GAFDD-2P integrates:
- Arc fault detection
- 30mA residual-current/leakage protection
- Overcurrent protection
- Short-circuit protection
- Overvoltage detection
This integrated approach provides multiple layers of protection for compatible electrical circuits.
