The 16 Amp RCBO Single Module Type A is a versatile and reliable electrical protection device that combines the functions of a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) and a residual current device (RCD). It is designed to protect circuits from overloads, short circuits, and earth leakage faults, ensuring maximum safety for both users and electrical equipment. By switching both live and neutral conductors, it provides complete circuit isolation, reducing potential risks.
Operating at 240V, this RCBO is well-suited for residential and light commercial environments. Its compact single-module design allows it to fit easily into modern distribution boards, making it an excellent choice where space is limited. Built with high-quality materials, it ensures durability, precision, and consistent performance across a wide range of applications.
This 16 Amp RCBO offers a perfect balance of safety, performance, and convenience. Its Type A capability allows detection of both AC and pulsating DC residual currents, making it suitable for modern electrical loads. The dual switching mechanism enhances protection by isolating both live and neutral connections during faults. Easy to install and highly reliable, it is an ideal solution for safeguarding electrical circuits in today’s environments.
