Why Choose the ABB DSN201E B16 A30 RCBO?

The ABB DSN201E B16 A30 is a compact residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase electrical circuits against overloads, short circuits and earth leakage faults. Part of the trusted ABB DSN201E series, it combines multiple protective functions within a space-saving single-module device, making it ideal for residential, commercial and light industrial installations.

Featuring a B tripping characteristic and Type A residual current protection, the DSN201E B16 A30 detects both sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC earth leakage currents commonly produced by modern electronic equipment. It is particularly suitable for socket outlets, lighting circuits and general-purpose final circuits.

With a rated current of 16 A, a residual operating current of 30 mA and a 6 kA breaking capacity, the ABB DSN201E B16 A30 provides dependable protection while occupying only one DIN rail module, helping maximise available space within consumer units and distribution boards.

Key Advantages

  • Combined residual current and overcurrent protection in a single compact device.
  • 16 A rated current suitable for general-purpose final circuits.
  • 30 mA residual current sensitivity for additional protection against electric shock.
  • Type A protection detects AC and pulsating DC residual currents.
  • 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity.
  • Compact single-module width saves valuable distribution board space.

Key Features

  • ABB DSN201E electronic RCBO series.
  • 16 A rated current.
  • 1P+N switched neutral configuration.
  • B curve tripping characteristic.
  • Type A residual current protection.
  • 30 mA rated residual operating current.
  • 6 kA breaking capacity.
  • One-module DIN rail mounted design.

Reliable Circuit and Earth Leakage Protection

The ABB DSN201E B16 A30 combines miniature circuit breaker and residual current protection into one compact device. It disconnects the electrical supply whenever overloads, short circuits or earth leakage faults occur, helping protect both people and electrical installations.

Its Type A residual current detection makes it suitable for modern installations containing electronic equipment, while the switched neutral design provides improved circuit isolation during maintenance and fault conditions.

Typical Applications

  • Residential consumer units.
  • Commercial distribution boards.
  • Socket outlet circuits.
  • Lighting installations.
  • Office and retail electrical systems.
  • Circuits supplying electronic appliances.
