Why Choose the Lovato P1RB1NC06A300 RCBO?
The Lovato P1RB1NC06A300 is a reliable residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect electrical circuits against earth leakage, overloads and short circuits. Part of the professional Lovato Electric P1RB series, it combines residual current protection and miniature circuit breaker functions within one compact modular device.
Featuring a rated current of 6 A, a rated residual operating current of 300 mA and a Type C tripping characteristic, the P1RB1NC06A300 is suitable for low-current circuits containing equipment with moderate starting currents. Its Type A residual current characteristic detects sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual currents, making it suitable for circuits containing modern electronic equipment.
The RCBO has a 1P+N configuration, occupies two DIN modules and provides a short-circuit breaking capacity of 10 kA. Designed for DIN rail installation, it offers a compact protection solution for industrial control panels, machinery, commercial distribution boards and automation systems.

Combined Residual Current and Overcurrent Protection
The Lovato P1RB1NC06A300 combines the functions of a miniature circuit breaker and a residual current device. Its thermal-magnetic mechanism protects wiring and connected equipment against sustained overloads and high short-circuit currents, while the residual current element monitors current imbalance caused by leakage to earth.
The Type A residual current characteristic enables the RCBO to detect sinusoidal AC leakage currents and pulsating DC residual currents. Its 300 mA sensitivity makes it particularly suitable for equipment and installation protection where a higher residual current threshold is specified.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels.
- Machinery control and auxiliary circuits.
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Electronic equipment and power supplies.
- Automation and building control systems.
- Manufacturing and processing equipment.
- OEM machinery and electrical assemblies.
- Circuits requiring 300 mA earth-leakage protection.
