Although Australia has one of the safest electrical systems in the world, accidents can still happen. A poorly maintained appliance, a person who innocently pushes something into a power socket or cuts through an electrical wire, a frayed cord, wet hands or carelessness with power tools are all situations that can lead to serious consequences. Benefits of residual current devices (RCDs) are well documented and latest version of wiring rules (AS/NZS 3000:2018) makes it mandatory to have RCD protection for all final sub-circuits in residential applications. Amendment 2 of AS/NZS 3000:2018 makes it mandatory to have type A RCD (not type AC RCD) from May 2023 for additional safety. All RCDs under MAX9 range are future ready and already type A.
