Why should you use a RCD with 230 volt tools?

Using a Residual Current Device (RCD) with 230-volt tools is essential for enhancing safety by preventing electric shock. RCDs quickly detect imbalances in electrical current, which can occur if a tool's insulation fails or if a user accidentally touches a live part. By cutting off the power within milliseconds, RCDs significantly reduce the risk of severe injuries or fatalities. Additionally, they help protect against electrical fires caused by faults in the equipment.
