Specifications
EG-600 · AER12The EarthGuard EG-600 continuously monitors the insulation to earth of up to two DC circuits (40–600 Vdc). On a fault it lights that circuit’s Fault LED, sounds the buzzer and opens that circuit’s fail-safe relay. It is designed to support compliance with AS/NZS 5033 (PV arrays) and AS/NZS 5139 (battery systems) when installed to the current editions of those and other applicable local standards.
