ELCI SENSORS AND BREAKERS - MARINE MARKET | RV Extension Cords




The LineGard™ PGFM product family provides ELCI (equipment leakage) ground fault sensing and is designed and manufactured by North Shore Safety, a leader in innovative safety products. The PGFM series operates in tandem with an Airpax™ LEL series, UL 489 listed circuit breaker, with shunt trip and auxiliary switch manufactured by Sensata Technologies.
The combined assembly of the PGFM and Airpax™ breaker meets the requirements of ABYC E-11 for ground fault protection and main shore power circuit protection. The PGFM constantly monitors the current balance of the conductors (wires / cables) supplying power to the load. When a ground fault of 27mA nominal (30mA max) occurs, the PGFM uses the LEL’s shunt trip coil to signal the breaker trip.

The Dangers of Using Outdated Shore Power Systems

Image
  Shore power systems are essential for boats and recreational vehicles that require electrical power while docked. These systems provide a means of connecting the vessel to a source of electricity, allowing boaters and RVers to power their appliances, lighting, and other electrical systems. However, not all shore power systems are created equal, and some can be dangerous if they are outdated. Case in point: twist-type plugs. One of the main dangers of using twist-type plugs is that they do not have a locking mechanism. This means that the plug can easily become disconnected from the power source, which can lead to power outages and equipment damage. Furthermore, these plugs lack weatherproofing, which means that they are susceptible to damage from water and other environmental factors.
