Cl 2.6.3, Cl 7.9.3 and Cl 7.9.4
Additional protection by RCD, required residual current and circuit limits
The RCD selection tool reads whether the clause calls for additional protection on the circuit. It also reads the residual current figure the clause sets, and the circuit or socket‑outlet rating the clause stops at. For electric vehicle charging, it reads the device type and its conditions and the capacity. It also reads the clause each figure comes from. Mode 3 and Mode 4 are separate rows, because the Exception names Mode 3 only.
