GLD-3 application field and working principle

An GLD-3, also known as a "Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)" is a specialized type of circuit breaker that detects and interrupts ground faults. It is used in residential and commercial electrical wiring applications as a safety device to protect people from electric shock. Ground fault circuit interrupters are typically installed in areas where electricity is likely to come in contact with water, such as bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms.

The GLD-3 belongs to the Electrical, Specialty Fuses category of electrical products. This type of circuit breaker is designed specifically to protect people from electric shock and prevent fires caused by ground fault circuit issues. As its name implies, it interrupts the circuit in the event of a ground fault (an accidental connection between an energized conductor and earth ground).

The GLD-3 works by using a sensing coil to detect any current imbalance, signalling a ground fault in the circuit. When it senses an imbalance, usually due to a short circuit, the GLD-3 will immediately open the circuit, breaking the connection and stopping the current flow until the problem is corrected. The sensing coil is designed to respond in the presence of low current levels, typically 5 milliamps or less, ensuring protection even in the event of a minor ground fault.

The GLD-3 is ideal for installations in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, or any other location where water and electricity come into contact. It is also suitable for installations in wet or damp areas due to its high water resistance. The GLD-3 also meets UL943 and UL1053 standards for ground fault circuit interrupters.

The GLD-3 is the newest addition to the Electrical, Specialty Fuses range from manufacturers. Its advanced technology and superior reliability make it an ideal choice for residential and commercial applications, providing an added level of safety and protection.
