Why Choose the IMO B6BRC1N32-30-A Type A RCBO?
The IMO B6BRC1N32-30-A is a compact Type A Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase electrical circuits against overloads, short circuits and residual earth leakage currents. Combining the functions of an MCB and an RCD within one DIN rail-mounted device helps simplify distribution-board layouts while providing comprehensive protection for wiring, equipment and users.
Its Type A residual-current characteristic enables the RCBO to detect both alternating sinusoidal residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents. This makes it suitable for modern electrical circuits containing electronic controls, LED drivers, switched-mode power supplies, appliances and automation equipment.
With a rated current of 32 A, a B curve overcurrent characteristic, 30 mA residual-current sensitivity and a 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the B6BRC1N32-30-A is suitable for higher-capacity final circuits in commercial, industrial and building-services installations.
Key Advantages
- Combines overload, short-circuit and residual-current protection.
- Type A residual-current detection for AC and pulsating DC fault currents.
- 32 A rated current for higher-capacity final circuits.
- 30 mA sensitivity provides additional protection against electric shock.
- B curve tripping characteristic suits circuits with low to moderate inrush currents.
- Compact DIN rail format helps reduce distribution-board space requirements.

Combined Protection for Modern Electrical Installations
An RCBO combines miniature circuit breaker and residual-current protection in one device. It disconnects the protected circuit when it detects an overload, short circuit or potentially dangerous earth leakage current, helping safeguard electrical wiring, connected equipment and personnel.
The Type A characteristic makes the IMO B6BRC1N32-30-A suitable for circuits containing modern electronic equipment. These loads can produce pulsating DC residual currents that require appropriate Type A detection alongside standard alternating-current fault detection.
Typical Applications
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control panels.
- Socket-outlet and power circuits.
- Lighting and LED driver circuits.
- Building-services installations.
- OEM machinery and automation equipment.
