100 mA RCD Operating Time

[1976]

100 mA RCD Operating Time - This pains me to ask but simply I cannot find it in the Regs. Does anyone know what page its on. please.

The 100mA RCD is for a TT system in theory and I need to know the answer. Please don't say keep looking 'cause I just can't find it. all I can find is that the info is in section 413 of the regs - and guess what it does'nt have a section 413!

Very very annoying why they don't put page numbers next to stuff in the index I'lle never no!

So can anyone please just tell me what page or even the correct section - I don't want answers to its actual operating time. I just want to know where I can find it

Thanks in Advancve

From GN3:

(BS4293)
test at 100% I (+&-), should trip less than 200ms. Test at 1/2 I (+&-) shouldn't trip.
For time delay type the 100% (+&-) trip should be between [50% plus 200ms] and [rated time plus 200ms].

(BSEN61008/9)
test at 100% I (+&-), should trip less than 300ms. Test at 1/2 I (+&-) shouldn't trip.
For time delay type (S) the 100% (+&-) trip should be between 130ms and 500ms.

What kind of Wiring Regulations have you got?

In mine, Section 413 comes immediately after Section 412 and occupies 11 pages, 43 - 53
