Why Choose the Lovato P1RD2P40A300S Residual Current Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1RD2P40A300S is a reliable two-pole residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) designed to provide effective earth leakage protection and safe disconnection of electrical circuits. Part of the Lovato P1RD residual current protection device series, it combines dependable residual current monitoring with compact DIN rail installation for industrial, commercial and low-voltage distribution systems.
This RCCB provides protection against residual currents by disconnecting the circuit when leakage current exceeds the defined threshold. The selective (S) time-delayed characteristic helps improve system discrimination by coordinating with downstream protective devices, reducing unnecessary interruptions in larger electrical installations.
With a rated current of 40 A, a 300 mA residual current sensitivity and a two-pole configuration, the Lovato P1RD2P40A300S is suitable for protecting single-phase circuits in industrial panels, commercial installations and electrical distribution systems.

Reliable Residual Current Protection for Electrical Systems
Residual current circuit breakers such as the Lovato P1RD2P40A300S monitor electrical circuits for leakage currents caused by insulation faults or unwanted current paths to earth. By disconnecting the supply when dangerous leakage levels occur, they help improve electrical safety and protect installations.
The selective design of this RCCB allows better coordination in multi-level protection systems, helping prevent upstream devices from disconnecting unnecessarily when downstream protection devices operate first.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical distribution boards.
- Control panels and automation systems.
- Commercial building installations.
- Low-voltage power distribution systems.
- Machinery and equipment protection circuits.
- Electrical installations requiring selective residual current protection.
