Description
The WARTD463-100 A-Type 100mA Time Delay RCD is a 4 Pole S-Type device rated at 63A. Its built-in time delay ensures upstream discrimination, allowing downstream RCDs to trip first and preventing unnecessary power loss. Ideal for three-phase distribution boards, EV charging hubs, and renewable installs where selective coordination is essential. Fully compliant with BS EN 61008-1 and the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations.
Installer Tip: Use 4 Pole time delay RCDs when protecting three-phase circuits or boards with both line and neutral conductors. Never use time delay devices on final circuits directly.
Key Features
- 4 Pole A-Type RCD – full disconnection of line + neutral
- Time delay (S-Type) – ensures upstream coordination
- 63A rated current – suited for small to mid-sized three-phase boards
- Sensitivity: 100mA (30mA & 300mA options also available)
- DIN-rail mountable – compact 72mm unit
- Standards: BS EN 61008-1, 18th Edition compliant

- Never use on final circuits directly
- Installation by a qualified electrician only
FAQs
Where is the WARTD463-100 most commonly used?
It’s suited for upstream protection in smaller three-phase boards, EV charging sites, or renewable installs requiring selective coordination.
Why use a time delay RCD instead of a standard RCD?
A time delay RCD allows downstream RCDs to trip first, preventing nuisance outages across unaffected circuits.
Is this compliant with UK regulations?
Yes – it complies with BS EN 61008-1 and the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (Amendment 2).
Does this RCD cover surge protection?
No – surge protection requires a dedicated SPD installed alongside the RCD.
