Why Choose the Lovato P1RD2P63AC300 Residual Current Device?
The Lovato P1RD2P63AC300 is a modular 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 residual-current protection for electrical distribution, industrial control and equipment installations.
Rated at 63 A with a rated residual operating current of 300 mA, the P1RD2P63AC300 is designed for applications requiring earth-fault and leakage-current protection at this sensitivity level. Its Type AC characteristic responds to sinusoidal alternating residual currents, making it suitable for compatible conventional AC circuits.
The two-pole configuration provides simultaneous switching of both poles in compatible single-phase installations. Its compact modular construction and standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting make the P1RD2P63AC300 straightforward to integrate into distribution boards, industrial control panels and machine electrical systems.

Reliable Residual-Current Protection
Residual current devices such as the Lovato P1RD2P63AC300 monitor the balance of current flowing through the active conductors of an electrical circuit. If leakage to earth creates an imbalance that reaches the device's operating threshold, the RCD disconnects the circuit to help protect the installation against the consequences of earth faults and insulation leakage.
The Type AC characteristic is intended for applications where sinusoidal alternating residual currents are expected. Combined with its 300 mA sensitivity, 63 A current rating and two-pole construction, the P1RD2P63AC300 provides a practical residual-current protection solution for suitable industrial and electrical distribution circuits.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Industrial machinery and equipment panels.
- Commercial and industrial electrical installations.
- Conventional AC circuits requiring earth-leakage protection.
- Applications requiring 300 mA Type AC residual-current protection.
