Gratulation, der erste, der diese clevere Brandschutztechnik für Boote anbietet !
I know these relatively new fire protection switches from the electrical installation area very well. An innovation in the otherwise conservative world of electricians. The devices monitor the individually secured 230V circuit for unwanted electrical interruption due to, for example, wire break cable crushing or loose connection, as well as defective device switches. Even "hissing" socket distributors are recognized and if a dangerous arcing fault occurs, it is switched off confidently before the fire starts. It is incomprehensible to me why so little is said about it so far. As an alternative to the regular fixed installation on the ship, the technology can also be accommodated in a mobile plug adapter housing between the shore connection and the on-board power plug.

Ganz Einfach für ein gutes Gewissen sorgen !!
Hello ! Practical small box with the most important protective devices for 230V cables, sockets and Co. on board. The best thing to do is to install it in a dry area so that you can get there later to regularly check the residual current protection (test button), the fire protection switch checks itself. The box is splash-proof, but dry protects the components better !! Especially on the ship, you'd better press the test button a little more often - I know this will be 'forgotten' at home, but it's very important !! And take the opportunity to have sockets, CEE plugs and the shore connection cables checked for damage, so that nothing happens in bad weather !! -) Hand width!

Not certified for suggested use
Almost all boat networks have multiple circuits while the AFDD must not be used as a distribution root switch (arc fault protection won't be effective).
