Why Choose the P1RC2P40AC030?

Lovato’s P1RC2P40AC030 residual current operated circuit breaker delivers dependable AC earth leakage protection for two-pole circuits. This 2-module, type AC device is rated 40A with 30mA sensitivity and conforms to IEC/EN/BS 61008-1. With a 400 V rated insulation voltage and 4 kV impulse withstand, it suits compliant panels requiring compact, standards-based residual current protection.

Engineered for reliability, it features IP20 frontal protection, operates from -35 to +70 °C, and is suitable up to 2000 m altitude (pollution degree 2). Low power dissipation of 1.6 W per pole helps minimise heat rise. Practical touches include 1.8–2 Nm terminal tightening torque, compact 2-DIN-module width and a manageable 185 g weight for straightforward panel integration.
