Electrical safety in low voltage distribution systems up to 1 000 V a.c. and 1 500 V d.c. - Equipment for testing, measuring or monitoring of protective measures - Part 6: Effectiveness of residual current devices (RCD) in TT, TN and IT systems
Specifies the requirements for measuring equipment applied to the testing of the effectiveness of protective measures by regular disconnections of residual current protective devices (RCD) in TT, TN and IT systems. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1997. This edition constitutes a technical revision. The following changes were made with respect to the previous edition (1997): a) title and scope complemented; b) definitions complemented; c) revision of requirements; d) "tripping tests" and "non-tripping tests" subclauses complemented; e) markings complemented; f) addition of Annex A.

Electrical safety in low voltage distribution systems up to 1 000 V AC and 1 500 V DC - Equipment for testing, measuring or monitoring of protective measures - Part 6: Effectiveness of residual current devices (RCD) in TT, TN and IT systems
IEC 61557-6:2019 specifies the requirements applicable to measuring equipment for testing the effectiveness of protective measures of residual current devices (RCD) installed in TT, TN and IT systems. It is not the purpose of this document to verify the RCD according to their product standards. IEC 61557-6:2019 cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2007. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) addition of requirements for testing a new type of RCD; b) addition of requirements for type B RCDs (former Annex B); c) addition of new Annex B on recommended tripping times; d) alignment of the structure with that of the whole IEC 61557 series.
