A safety switch, also known as a Residual Current Device (RCD), is a life-saving device designed to prevent electrocution by instantly cutting off power when it detects an electrical fault.
Unlike circuit breakers, which protect electrical appliances from massive electrical overloads, safety switches detect even small imbalances in electrical current that could pose a hazard to people. Circuit breakers are not the provider of personal protection against electric shocks, whereas safety switches act immediately to prevent harm.
Having properly functioning safety switches is essential for home and workplace safety. They are the only effective defense against fatal electrocution, reducing the risk of electrical accidents. Regular testing and maintenance ensure they work correctly, offering peace of mind and Safety Checks with safety regulations.

A standard safety switch inspection typically takes around 30–60 minutes, depending on the number of circuits and switches in your property.
Unplug all appliances and reset the switch. If it trips again, a circuit fault or faulty switch may be the cause. Contact an electrician for a thorough check.
You should test your safety switches twice a year by pressing the "T" or "Test" button. If the switch trips to the "Off" position, simply reset it to "On." If it doesn’t trip, turn off the power immediately and contact our licensed electrician.
