1.RCCB/RCD -Residual current circuit breaker or RCD -Residual current device.
Trips when earth is at fault
Shock protection
better for humans
best to detect earthing problems
ELCB is older name and voltage based
RCCB is newer current based
2.MCB- Miniature circuit breaker
3.MCCB - Moulded case circuit breaker
[MCB are glorified fuse's , a fuse box that trips and
can be reset rather than change a burnt wire,an electromechanical
device ]
2 and 3 are better for overload protection and devices
4.RCBO is combination of MCB and RCD
