Why Choose the Lovato P1RD2P40AC030 Residual Current Device?
The Lovato P1RD2P40AC030 is a dependable two-pole residual current device (RCD/RCCB) designed to provide effective earth leakage protection and improve electrical safety in residential, commercial and industrial installations. Part of the Lovato P1RD residual current protection series, it combines reliable residual current monitoring with a compact DIN rail mounting design for modern low-voltage distribution systems.
This residual current device detects leakage currents caused by insulation faults or unwanted current paths to earth and disconnects the circuit when the residual current exceeds the rated threshold. The Type AC characteristic provides protection against sinusoidal alternating residual currents commonly found in standard AC electrical loads.
With a rated current of 40 A, a 30 mA residual current sensitivity and a two-pole configuration, the Lovato P1RD2P40AC030 is suitable for protecting single-phase circuits in electrical distribution boards, industrial panels and control systems.
