Product Overview

The AFDD-16B Arc Fault Detection Device RCBO is an advanced electrical safety solution designed to detect and eliminate dangerous arc faults that can lead to electrical fires. By combining arc fault detection with residual current and overcurrent protection, this device provides complete circuit protection against leakage, overload, and short circuit conditions in a single compact unit.

Ideal for both residential and commercial applications, the AFDD-16B enhances electrical safety by identifying abnormal arc patterns that traditional breakers may not detect. With a 6kA breaking capacity and 30mA sensitivity, it ensures rapid disconnection of faulty circuits, protecting both people and electrical equipment from potential hazards.
