Why Choose the IMO B6CR1N16-30-A Type A RCBO?
The IMO B6CR1N16-30-A is a compact Type A Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO) that provides comprehensive protection against overloads, short circuits and earth leakage faults within a single DIN rail-mounted device. Combining the functions of an MCB and RCD simplifies distribution board design while providing reliable protection for electrical installations.
Featuring a C Curve tripping characteristic, this RCBO is ideal for circuits supplying equipment with moderate inrush currents, including motors, transformers, contactors and switched-mode power supplies. Its Type A residual-current protection detects both AC and pulsating DC leakage currents, making it suitable for today's electronic loads such as LED lighting, appliances, automation equipment and control systems.
With a 16 A rated current, 30 mA residual operating current, 6 kA breaking capacity and compact 1 Pole + Neutral design, the B6CR1N16-30-A is an excellent choice for commercial, industrial and OEM electrical installations.

Designed for Modern Electrical Installations
The IMO B6CR1N16-30-A continuously monitors both load current and residual leakage current. Should an overload, short circuit or earth fault occur, the RCBO disconnects the supply quickly, helping protect wiring, connected equipment and users.
Its Type A residual-current characteristic makes it particularly suitable for circuits supplying electronic equipment that may generate pulsating DC leakage currents, while the C Curve characteristic helps prevent nuisance tripping caused by normal equipment start-up currents.
