DEB71
Earth Leakage Monitoring Relay

Benefits
• Adjustable trip level. Adjustable leakage threshold from
30mA to 5A or from 300mA to 30A.
• 2 outputs. Two relay outputs provide, besides the alarm
signal an additional warning output.
• Level indication. LED Bar shows at a glance the real
time leakage level.
• Nuisance tripping safe. EN 60947-2 Annex M
conformity.
• Anti tampering. Sealable front lid provides protection
against possible tampering.
• Remote R/T button. Input for external reset switch
allows remote system restart in case of tripping.
• Single / Threephase mains. The DEB71 can be used
on both three phase or single phase.

Description

The DEB71 is an adjustable modular residual


current relay which, in conjunction with the MCB
and the CT, provides protection against possible
risks arising from insulation or grounding faults, by
interrupting the mains on faulty loads or lines.
The setpoint of the leakage current is adjustable.
The device is equipped with two changeover relay
outputs.
One output triggers at 60% of fault current setpoint
value providing a warning to user, the other
output is used to shut down the system to prevent
accidents.

Applications

The DEB is a flexible device and can be used for all the applications where the loss of insulation, and/or
grounding failure, could lead to severe consequences.

DEB71


Operating diagram

The DEB71 is a modular residual current device which is used to detect when a failure, of an electric circuit,
causes a current leak to earth.
The mains cables are passed through an external CBCT (Core Balance Current Transformer), with the
exception of the PE which has to be routed outside, as shown in the hereafter suggested connection diagram.
Before starting the operation it is necessary to set the required leakage tripping current IΔn, from 30mA to 5A
(DEB71DM24A5) or from 300mA to 30A (DEB71DM24A30).
A delay up to 5s can also be set.
Once the setting is completed, the front lid can be closed and sealed to prevent tampering.
Normal operation
When the circuit is powered the green LED (ON) will turn ON. If the current flowing to the load/s through the
lines is the same flowing back from the load/s, the resulting current on the CBCT output will be zero. All other
LEDs are OFF, both output relays are energised, external MCB is closed.
Alarm detection
In case of leak on the load or lines, the amount of current flowing back from the load is less than the one
provided. This unbalancement causes a current flow on the CBCT output. The current is proportional to the
leakage current.
If the leakage is below 20% of the set leakage threshold IΔn, no indication is provided. When the leakage
exceeds 20% and is below 40% the green LED (L1) is lit. Above 40%, but still below 60%, the yellow LED (L2)
is also lit. Above 60% L3 yellow LED is lit. At this level the warning signal goes off: LED "PRE" will light and
output 2 relay is de-energised (terminal 21 closed on 22).
When the leakage rises above 80%, of the set threshold, ALARM goes off after Δt delay elapsing: red LED
"AL" is lit, output 1 is de-energised (terminal 11 closed on 12). The external MCB will open, disconnecting the
mains from the load/s.
Reset
When the fault cause has been eliminated, operation can be restored by pressing the R pushbutton on the
device front panel or by pressing the remote R/T pushbutton.
Test
System integrity has to be periodically tested by pressing the T pushbutton on the device front panel. It is also
possible by pressing the remote R/T pushbutton for more than 2s.
