Why Choose the IMO B6BRC1N06-30 RCBO?
The IMO B6BRC1N06-30 is a compact Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase electrical circuits against earth leakage, overload and short-circuit faults. By combining residual-current and overcurrent protection within one device, it helps simplify distribution-board layouts, reduce wiring requirements and conserve valuable DIN rail space.
Featuring a 6 A rated current, 30 mA residual operating current, Type AC residual-current protection and a C curve tripping characteristic, the B6BRC1N06-30 is suited to control, lighting and auxiliary circuits containing equipment with moderate starting currents.
The device incorporates a 1 Pole + Neutral configuration, allowing both the live and neutral conductors to be disconnected when operated. Its 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, compact DIN rail construction and integrated test button make it a practical protective device for commercial, industrial and OEM electrical installations.
Key Advantages
- Combined earth leakage, overload and short-circuit protection.
- 6 A rated current for low-current control and auxiliary circuits.
- 30 mA residual sensitivity provides additional protection against electric shock.
- Type AC protection detects alternating sinusoidal residual currents.
- C curve tripping characteristic accommodates moderate equipment starting currents.
- Compact integrated design helps reduce wiring and conserve enclosure space.

Combined Residual-Current and Overcurrent Protection
The IMO B6BRC1N06-30 monitors the protected circuit for residual-current imbalance, sustained overloads and short-circuit conditions. When a potentially hazardous fault is detected, the RCBO disconnects the circuit to help protect personnel, electrical wiring and connected equipment.
Its C curve operating characteristic makes it suitable for circuits containing equipment that may draw moderate inrush currents during start-up. Combining multiple protective functions within one device can also simplify installation, improve circuit-level fault identification and reduce the number of components required within the enclosure.
