Fortress Circuit Protections AFDD
Combined RCBO/AFDD
Electronic line voltage dependent device 1P + N (switch neutral) with flying lead insulated flexible copper wire
Installation Advice
This device must be installed by a qualified skilled person (electrically) in accordance with all relevant regulations including wiring regulations BS7671.
Insulation resistance test:
SWITCH OFF the device before an insulation resistance test between live conductors of the final load circuit as defined in the standard BS EN 62606. During commissioning the device must be tested using the test button, marked “T”; the device must trip immediately. This test must be repeated throughout the installed life of the device at intervals defined by relevant regulations including wiring regulations BS7671. This verifies the electrical and mechanical parts of the device only. Only for use within BG Consumer Units.
Test after installation
The interference transmission requirements as defined in the standards CISPR 14-1 and DIN EN 61000-6-3 (limit value class B) must be observed for the devices operated in the electrical installation (equipment). Non-compliant or defective devices (equipment) may cause interference which can influence the response sensitivity of the arc fault detection device.

Environmental Protection
This symbol is known as the “Crossed-out Wheelie Bin Symbol”. When this symbol is marked on a product or battery, it means that it should not be disposed of with your general household waste. Some chemicals contained within electrical/electronic products or batteries can be harmful to health and the environment. Only dispose of electrical/electronic/battery items in separate collection schemes, which cater for the recovery and recycling of materials contained within. Your co-operation is vital to ensure the success of these schemes and for the protection of the environment.
