Why Choose the Lovato P1RB1NC32A030 RCBO?
The Lovato P1RB1NC32A030 is a compact and dependable residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads, short circuits and earth leakage faults. Part of the Lovato Electric P1RB series, it combines miniature circuit breaker and residual current protection functions within a single modular device.
By integrating overcurrent and residual current protection, the P1RB1NC32A030 helps simplify distribution board layouts, reduce installation time and conserve valuable DIN rail space. Its 1P+N configuration protects the phase conductor while simultaneously switching the neutral conductor, making it suitable for single-phase electrical distribution systems.
With a rated current of 32 A, a C tripping characteristic, Type A residual current detection and a rated residual operating current of 30 mA, this RCBO provides comprehensive protection for final circuits. Its 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity supports reliable fault interruption in residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations.
