Why Choose the Lovato P1RE1NC20A300 RCBO?
The Lovato P1RE1NC20A300 is a compact 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to combine residual-current, overload and short-circuit protection in a single modular device. Part of the Lovato P1RE series, it provides a practical integrated protection solution for compatible single-phase electrical circuits.
Rated at 20 A, the P1RE1NC20A300 features a Type C tripping curve and a rated residual current of 300 mA. Its Type A residual operation characteristic is designed to respond to sinusoidal AC residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents, making it suitable for circuits where these residual-current waveforms may occur.
The RCBO operates at 230 V AC and 50/60 Hz, provides an IEC short-circuit rating of 10 kA and occupies only 2 DIN modules. Standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting, IP20 frontal protection and IEC/EN/BS 61009-1 compliance make it well suited to professional distribution boards, control panels and machinery.

Reliable Combined Circuit Protection
The Lovato P1RE1NC20A300 combines overcurrent and residual-current protection within one modular RCBO. Its Type C tripping curve provides overload and short-circuit protection, while its 300 mA Type A residual-current function provides protection against applicable sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC earth-leakage currents.
Combining these functions in a single 2-module device can simplify electrical panel design while providing individual circuit protection. With a 20 A current rating, 10 kA short-circuit rating and 230 V AC operation, the P1RE1NC20A300 is a dependable option for appropriately engineered single-phase distribution and control circuits.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase electrical distribution circuits.
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Machine and equipment electrical panels.
- Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
- Circuits requiring combined overcurrent and earth-leakage protection.
- Applications requiring 20 A Type C protection with 300 mA Type A residual-current sensitivity.
