can you give main difference between ELCB And RCCB?

Answer Posted / suresh g

elcb means earth leakage circuit breaker which operates when
there is a leakage of current from phase to earth.
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.
