ELCB Trip Current

07/03/2009 1:03 PM

I have an ELCB. There is a label on it which says, 30mA 20mS.

I know that 30mA is the maximum tripping current but what does the 20mS mean? Is it important?

Probably the tripping duration time - 20 milliseconds.

Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker

the time has to be operating time.

Since in the specifications that is the only one with time as unit.
