DFA Remote Actuators

Remote actuators or automatic reclosing devices (ARDs) can only be installed in the associated part of the installation where access is restricted to “instructed” or “electrically” skilled persons – see Regulation 531.1.1.

Before installing a remote actuator on an RCCB, complete a risk assement to determine if the remote tripping or re-closing of the RCCB could create a hazard
