Why Choose the Lovato P1RE1NC06A030 RCBO?
The Lovato P1RE1NC06A030 is a compact 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to combine overload, short-circuit and residual-current protection within a single modular device. Part of the Lovato P1RE range, it combines a 6 A rated current, C tripping curve and 30 mA Type A residual-current characteristic.
With a 10 kA IEC short-circuit rating and 230 V AC rated operational voltage, the P1RE1NC06A030 provides comprehensive circuit protection for compatible single-phase electrical installations. Its Type A characteristic detects sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual currents, while the C-curve overcurrent characteristic makes it suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents.
Occupying only two DIN modules, the P1RE1NC06A030 combines multiple protection functions in a space-efficient format. It mounts on a standard 35 mm DIN rail and offers IP20 frontal protection, making it well suited to distribution boards, industrial control panels and OEM electrical equipment.

Combined Overcurrent and Type A Residual-Current Protection
The Lovato P1RE1NC06A030 combines the functions normally associated with miniature circuit-breaker and residual-current protection in one device. Its C-curve overcurrent characteristic provides overload and short-circuit protection, while the 30 mA Type A residual-current function monitors for earth-leakage conditions involving sinusoidal AC or pulsating DC residual currents.
This combined protection makes the P1RE1NC06A030 particularly useful where panel space and circuit protection requirements favour a single RCBO rather than separate MCB and RCCB devices. Its 10 kA short-circuit rating, 1P+N arrangement and 230 V AC rating support integration into compatible single-phase distribution and control circuits.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase electrical distribution circuits.
- Industrial and commercial distribution boards.
- Circuits requiring 30 mA Type A residual-current protection.
- Control panels and automation equipment.
- Electrical circuits with moderate equipment inrush currents.
- Machinery and OEM electrical panels.
- Compact installations requiring combined overcurrent and earth-leakage protection.
