The TAR-463L Automatic Recloser RCCB represents a significant advancement in electrical protection technology, combining traditional earth leakage protection with intelligent automatic reclosing capabilities. This innovative device addresses one of the most common challenges in electrical installations: nuisance tripping caused by temporary earth leakage faults.

Unlike conventional RCCBs that require manual intervention after every trip event, the TAR-463L automatically attempts to restore power supply through a sophisticated 6-stage reclosing sequence. The progressive delay intervals (10s, 20s, 30s, 60s, 120s, and 600s) allow temporary faults to clear while preventing immediate re-energization that could pose safety risks.

The device integrates seamlessly into modern electrical distribution systems, offering auxiliary contacts for remote monitoring and control system integration. Its robust electromechanical design ensures reliable operation across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for both indoor and challenging outdoor applications.

With SIRIM approval and full compliance with IEC 61008-1 standards, the TAR-463L delivers peace of mind for installers and end-users alike, ensuring both regulatory compliance and superior performance in critical power distribution applications.

Reclosing Mechanism Technology: The TAR-463L employs an advanced automatic reclosing (REC) mechanism that operates on 220/240V AC at 50Hz. The recloser activates within 0.4 to 1.0 seconds following an RCCB trip event, initiating the first reconnection attempt after a 10-second delay. If the fault persists and causes subsequent tripping, the system progressively extends the delay period through six stages, allowing increasing time for temporary faults to clear naturally.

RCCB Protection Characteristics: The integrated electromechanical RCCB provides Type AC earth leakage protection with a rated residual current of 300mA (0.3A). The device is designed with a non-trip threshold of 0.5 × I∆n, ensuring stability against minor leakage currents while maintaining sensitivity to genuine fault conditions. With a rated breaking capacity of 500A and rated limited short-circuit current capacity of 6kA, the TAR-463L offers comprehensive protection against both earth leakage and overcurrent conditions.

Control and Monitoring: The device features toggle-type control and includes auxiliary contacts (1 NO + 1 NC) rated for 250V / 2A, enabling integration with building management systems, remote monitoring equipment, or alarm circuits. The dry contact configuration ensures electrical isolation between the main circuit and control systems.

Lockout and Reset Logic: After six unsuccessful reclosing attempts, the TAR-463L enters a lockout state, requiring manual reset to restart operation. This intelligent safety feature prevents continuous reclosing in the presence of persistent faults, ensuring personnel safety and preventing equipment damage.

Environmental Durability: Designed for demanding applications, the TAR-463L operates reliably across temperatures from -35°C to +70°C and humidity levels up to 93%. The device is rated for 5,000 electrical cycles, ensuring long-term reliability in high-utilization installations.

  • Residential Distribution Boards: Ideal for main distribution panels in homes and apartment buildings where temporary earth leakage events may cause inconvenient power interruptions
  • Commercial Buildings: Suitable for office complexes, retail spaces, and commercial facilities requiring high power availability and minimal manual intervention
  • Pump Systems: Perfect for water supply, irrigation, and drainage pump installations where automatic power restoration is critical for continuous operation
  • Outdoor Installations: Excellent for applications exposed to weather-related transient leakage conditions, such as outdoor lighting, signage, and equipment
  • Remote Facilities: Ideal for unmanned or remotely located installations where manual reset would be impractical or costly
  • Light Industrial Applications: Suitable for workshops, small manufacturing facilities, and processing plants requiring balance between safety and operational continuity
  • Agricultural Installations: Perfect for farm equipment, livestock facilities, and agricultural processing areas with temporary earth leakage risk
  • Telecommunications Sites: Applicable to base stations and communication facilities requiring maximum uptime
  • Refrigeration and Cold Storage: Critical for maintaining continuous power to refrigeration systems where brief interruptions could result in product loss
