Metalclad RCD Accessories  

The Metalclad RCD Accessories range combines the safety benefits of 30 mA residual current detection with the toughness of metal surface-mounted wiring devices, perfect for workshops, garages, factories and commercial sites. Products in this range such as the Timeguard Valiance+ metalclad active and passive RCD sockets and fused connection units offer visual dual-flag indication and manual rest/test controls for quick on-site verification. Greenbrook PowerBreaker metalclad RCD options extend choice to multi-gang switched or unswitched sockets, giving installers flexibility when specifying RCD-protected outlets in tough environments. The metalclad finish not only provides a rugged aesthetic but also enhances mechanical strength and longevity compared with standard moulded accessories — ideal where durability is essential. Active (non-latching) RCD devices trip and disconnect on fault and power loss, while passive (latching) variants retain connection after fault until manually reset — useful for fixed equipment. All units support standard 13 A circuits and are designed for straightforward surface mounting, helping installers meet safety requirements with devices suited to high-use applications.
