Why Choose the Lovato P1RB1NC06A030 RCBO?
The Lovato P1RB1NC06A030 is a dependable 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 and miniature circuit breaker functions within one compact modular device.
Featuring a rated current of 6 A, a residual operating current of 30 mA and a Type C tripping characteristic, the P1RB1NC06A030 is suitable for circuits supplying equipment with moderate starting currents. Its Type A residual current characteristic detects sinusoidal AC residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents, providing enhanced protection 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 installation on a standard 35 mm DIN rail, it offers a space-efficient protection solution for industrial control panels, machinery, commercial distribution boards and automation systems.

Combined Residual Current and Overcurrent Protection
The Lovato P1RB1NC06A030 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 allows the RCBO to detect both sinusoidal AC leakage and pulsating DC residual currents. This makes it particularly suitable for circuits containing electronic power supplies, appliances, control equipment and other loads incorporating semiconductor components.

- Industrial electrical control panels.
- Machinery control and auxiliary circuits.
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Electronic equipment and power supplies.
- Lighting and small power circuits.
- Automation and building control systems.
- OEM machinery and equipment.
- Circuits requiring 30 mA residual current protection.
