can you give main difference between ELCB And RCCB?

Answer Posted / sankar

An Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) is a safety device
used in electrical installations with high earth impedance
to prevent shock. It detects small stray voltages on the
metal enclosures of electrical equipment, and interrupts
the circuit if a dangerous voltage is detected. Once widely
used,

And Second, RCCB is the Residual current circuit breaker
and it detects the any leakage currents directly.
