[SIZE=10pt]Hey guys,[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]I had a 20A circuit installed for brewing however the electrician didn’t install an RCD.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Till now I have been using 2x10A plug in RCD’s but now that I’m building a new control panel which is going to be running from the 20A feed I thought I might as well throw in an RCD or RCBO like this one http://www.bunnings.com.au/deta-20amp-residual-circuit-breaker-with-overload-_p4330895[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]My question is what is the kA?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]The circuit breaker in my box is 6kA but most that I have found are 4.5kA. Can I use a 4.5 or should I match the same as the circuit breaker?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10pt]Cheers.[/SIZE]
