Why Choose the Lovato P1RD2P25A030 Residual Current Device?
The Lovato P1RD2P25A030 is a compact two-pole residual current device (RCD/RCCB) designed to detect earth-leakage currents and disconnect the protected circuit when the residual current reaches its operating threshold. Part of the Lovato P1RD series, it provides Type A residual-current protection for electrical distribution, control-panel and building-service applications.
Rated at 25 A with a rated residual operating current of 30 mA, the P1RD2P25A030 provides high-sensitivity earth-leakage protection. Its Type A detection characteristic responds to sinusoidal AC residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents, making it suitable for modern electrical circuits containing electronic equipment.
The two-pole configuration enables simultaneous disconnection of phase and neutral conductors in compatible single-phase circuits. Its modular construction is designed for standard 35 mm DIN rail installation, making the P1RD2P25A030 a practical residual-current protection solution for distribution boards and electrical control assemblies.

Reliable Residual-Current Protection
Residual current devices such as the Lovato P1RD2P25A030 monitor the current flowing through the active conductors of a circuit. When an imbalance caused by current leakage to earth reaches the device's operating threshold, the RCD rapidly disconnects the circuit to provide additional protection against the hazards associated with earth faults.
The Type A characteristic extends detection beyond conventional sinusoidal AC leakage to include pulsating DC residual currents that can be produced by electronic equipment. Combined with its 30 mA sensitivity, two-pole construction and compact modular format, the P1RD2P25A030 provides effective residual-current protection for a broad range of modern electrical installations.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Commercial electrical installations.
- Circuits supplying electronic equipment.
- Machine and equipment electrical panels.
- Applications requiring 30 mA Type A residual-current protection.
