[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", "horizontal", "vertical", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and should not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 The first embodiment of this utility model provides an enhanced waterproof leakage current protection device housing. The outer surface of the housing is coated with fluorocarbon coating, which can form a surface hydrophobic and oleophobic structure with a microstructure at the nanoscale, namely fluorocarbon coating, so that water and other liquids are not easy to adhere to the outer surface of the housing. The fluorocarbon coating also has excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.

[0023] The housing includes an upper housing 1 and a lower housing 2, which are connected by four screws. The mounting surfaces are provided with seals. The front of the upper housing 1 has three holes for accommodating a switch, a reset button, and an indicator light. When the switch, reset button, and indicator light are assembled from the inside into the corresponding holes of the upper housing 1, a sealing plug is used for sealing. The lower housing 2 has four threaded holes. When the screws connect the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 from the outside, a sealing ring is used for sealing.

[0024] The top and bottom surfaces of the shell are both inclined surfaces sloping upwards towards the shell 1, making it trapezoidal when viewed from the side. Water and other liquids will slide down the inclined surfaces, effectively reducing their residence time on the shell surface.

[0025] To reduce liquid adhesion and flow at switches, reset buttons, and indicator lights, a water-blocking structure 3 is designed at each opening, wherein:

[0026] The hole used to accommodate the switch is a square hole. The corresponding water-blocking structure 3 consists of a top and sides. The top has a certain curvature to facilitate liquid sliding. The two sides cover the entire side of the hole and gradually narrow from top to bottom, blocking dripping liquid while reducing the adhesion area.

[0027] The hole for accommodating the reset button and indicator light is a circular hole, and the corresponding water-blocking structure 3 is an arc shape that covers the upper half of the hole.

[0028] In the second embodiment of this utility model, only the water-blocking structure 3 of the square hole is changed. The top of the water-blocking structure 3 has an inclination angle and is slightly tilted downwards to allow liquid to drip. The rest of the design is the same as the first embodiment.

[0029] Please see Figure 2In the third embodiment of this utility model, the water-blocking structure 3 is changed from the semi-enclosed structure in the first and second embodiments to a fully enclosed structure. A waterproof membrane is also provided on the water-blocking structure 3 to cover the switch, reset button and indicator light and isolate water vapor.

[0030] The waterproof membrane at the corresponding switch and reset button is an elastic membrane, which isolates water vapor without hindering the use of the switch and button. The rest of the design is the same as the first embodiment.

[0031] The beneficial effects of this utility model's enhanced waterproof residual current device housing are:

[0032] 1. A hydrophobic coating is applied to the surface of the residual current device (RCD) housing to significantly reduce the adhesion of water and other liquids to the RCD surface. The top surface is designed as a slope to allow liquids to slide off, thereby enhancing the waterproof performance of the housing and improving the safety and reliability of the equipment.

[0033] 2. Various sealing components are used to seal the connection structure of the housing to ensure the waterproof performance of the housing, and water-blocking structures are designed at the holes to block dripping liquid and guide it to prevent it from adhering to, flowing and corroding the switches, reset buttons and indicator lights;

[0034] 3. The water-blocking structure is designed to be fully enclosed and covered with a waterproof membrane, which can better isolate water vapor. The use of an elastic membrane can ensure the normal operation of the switch and button.
