can you give main difference between ELCB And RCCB?

Answer Posted / muhammed k

ELCB means earth leakage circuit breaker which operates when
there is a leakage of current from phase to earth.Its only
for earht leakage protection and not for load or CKT
protection.it will not MCB function.But
Rccb means residual current circuit breaker which operates
when there is a difference in current between any two
phases.This differential current is called resdual current.
