RCD protection in a warehouse

[J.C.E]

Is there such thing as a three phase RCBO??!

Needing to install a three phase circuit for a 8kw three phase heater- connection by a 20a comando

I want to use the metal trunking I will be installing for various 13a sockets- so the circuit doesn't need the rcd protection- but i beleive the 20a comando will..

It will be a new hager TPN dis board

so hows best to get fault and additional protection in TP setup?

I did similar a while ago and used a 3 phase MCB at the DB then an enclosure with a 3 phase RCD and 32a socket 'all in one' at the other end but mine was in SWA .

I'm going to get some right stick if I ask what a warhouse is. So I'm not going to do it.

Use a rcd 32ah 5 pin socket g wiss do a good 1 if rest is in trunken

 

[Dave OCD]

Well I'm hoping he means a warehouse and not another similar worded 'house'.

You guys need to go to spec savers.

No it's been edited, it initially said Warhouse, 100% certain.

You can get 3 Phase RCBOs. See Acti 9 iC60 RCBO (2P, 3P, 4P) | Schneider Electric - https://www.schneider-electric.com/en/product-range-presentation/64209-acti-9-ic60-rcbo-%282p%2C-3p%2C-4p%29/

I tried looking for a hager one- but couldnt find one

How do they work with no neutral in use?

 

[LeeH]

Just Googled it...obvious really.

If it helps another divy the same current has to return through another phase if no N.

Hager do a 3 phase add on block. It joins round the MCB

Worked well for me.

and with changing the dis board- i am guessing I need to a 4pole SPD even more so with 18th edition out

I will be installed a hager 12way

where does the spd phycially go?- guessing not inside the dis board as it could do in a single phase consumer unit after the main switch and a 32a MCB

cheers guys

Could you not fit a 20 amp isolator instead and hard wire the heater in , then you would not need the rcd ? Failing that you could get your customer to do a risk assessment and omit the rcd
