Why Choose the Chint NB3LE-C25 RCBO?
The Chint NB3LE-C25 is a compact and reliable residual current operated circuit breaker with over-current protection (RCBO) designed for residential, commercial and light industrial electrical installations. As part of the Chint NB3LE series, it combines earth leakage protection, overload protection and short-circuit protection in one modular device.
This RCBO features a 1P+N configuration, making it suitable for single-phase circuits requiring both live and neutral switching. Its C curve tripping characteristic is suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents, while the 30 mA residual current sensitivity provides additional protection against electric shock.
With a rated current of 25 A, a rated voltage of 240 V AC and a short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA, the NB3LE-C25 is well suited to radial circuits, socket outlet circuits, small motors and general-purpose final circuit protection. Its DIN rail mounting design enables quick and secure installation in consumer units and distribution boards.
Key Advantages
- Compact RCBO combining RCD and MCB protection.
- 25 A rated current for general-purpose final circuits.
- 30 mA residual current sensitivity for additional personal protection.
- C curve characteristic suitable for circuits with moderate inrush current.
- 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity for dependable fault protection.
- DIN rail mounting for fast installation in consumer units and distribution boards.

Combined Circuit and Earth Leakage Protection
RCBOs such as the Chint NB3LE-C25 combine the functions of an MCB and an RCD in a single device. This allows the circuit to disconnect automatically in the event of overload, short circuit or earth leakage, helping improve electrical safety while reducing the number of protective devices required within the distribution board.
The NB3LE-C25 is suitable where individual circuit protection is required. By protecting each final circuit independently, RCBOs help minimise disruption, as a fault on one circuit is less likely to disconnect other protected circuits.
Typical Applications
- Consumer units and distribution boards.
- Socket outlet circuits.
- Residential electrical installations.
- Commercial building circuits.
- Small motors and inductive loads.
- Electrical panels requiring combined over-current and residual current protection.
