    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.

    To do this test, you need to have an insulation resistance tester, which may be a small hand held battery powered device, up to a larger luggage sized tool able to achieve higher test voltages. Variables to choose before starting an electrical resistance test is the test voltage, test duration, and test points.

    This test requires specific test equipment RCD tester: (the TEST button referred to here is the test button on the RCD tester not the TEST button on the RCD itself. If the RCD is live, pressing the RCD's own test button should always trip the RCD). The RCD tester should be connected with the socket, with earth terminal and

  5. Arc-fault circuit interrupter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc-fault_circuit_interrupter

    An AFCI does not detect high line voltage caused by an open neutral in a multiwire branch circuit. A multiwire branch circuit uses both energized wires of a 120–240 V split phase service. If the neutral is broken along the return path to the circuit breaker panel, devices connected from a 120 V leg to the neutral may experience excess voltage ...
