Why Choose the ABB DSH201 C16 A30 RCBO?

The ABB DSH201 C16 A30 is a compact 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase electrical circuits against overloads, short circuits and earth leakage faults. Combining miniature circuit breaker and residual current protection into one device, it offers reliable protection while saving valuable space in residential and commercial distribution boards.

Featuring a C tripping characteristic and Type A residual current protection, the DSH201 C16 A30 detects both alternating sinusoidal and pulsating DC residual currents. This makes it ideal for modern installations supplying LED lighting, socket outlets, kitchen appliances, office equipment and other electronic loads.

With a 16 A rated current, 30 mA residual current sensitivity and a 6 kA rated service breaking capacity, the ABB DSH201 C16 A30 delivers dependable protection for final circuits while maintaining a compact two-module DIN rail mounted design.

Key Advantages

  • Combined overload, short-circuit and earth leakage protection.
  • 16 A rated current suitable for socket outlets and general-purpose circuits.
  • 30 mA Type A residual current protection.
  • C curve for circuits with moderate inrush currents.
  • 6 kA service breaking capacity.
  • Compact DIN rail mounted construction.

Key Features

  • ABB DSH201 RCBO series.
  • 1P+N configuration.
  • 16 A rated current.
  • Type A residual current protection.
  • 30 mA rated residual operating current.
  • C tripping characteristic.
  • DIN rail mounting.
  • Mechanical endurance of 20,000 operations.

Reliable Combined Protection

The ABB DSH201 C16 A30 continuously monitors both load current and residual current. It disconnects the electrical supply automatically whenever overloads, short circuits or earth leakage faults occur, helping protect people, wiring systems and connected equipment from electrical hazards.

Its Type A residual current protection makes it suitable for installations containing electronic equipment capable of producing pulsating DC leakage currents, while the C curve characteristic provides dependable operation for circuits with moderate starting currents such as socket outlets, lighting and small appliances.

Typical Applications

  • Residential consumer units.
  • Socket outlet circuits.
  • Lighting circuits.
  • Kitchen appliance circuits.
  • Commercial buildings.
  • Office electrical installations.
