Is It Safe?

This device is claimed to eliminate
ground loop problems
Uses a pair of back-to-back rectifier
diodes in series with safety ground
Essentially an open circuit until
voltage difference reaches about ±
0.6 V (~ 400 mV rms)
Will it survive a 150 A fault for 2.5
seconds or a 1,000 A fault for 10 ms*
without opening up?
Ebtech
It is NOT UL Listed!
* These currents and times are based on a UL study that measured
fault currents and breaker response times in over a thousand homes.
