2CSR253001R1165 ABB DS203 AC-B16/0.03 RCBO 3P AC Type B 16A 30mA 6kA

Why Choose the ABB DS203 AC-B16/0.03 RCBO?

The ABB DS203 AC-B16/0.03 is a dependable 3-pole residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to provide combined protection against overloads, short circuits and earth fault currents. As part of the ABB DS200 RCBO series, it combines residual current and overcurrent protection in a single DIN rail-mounted device for commercial and industrial electrical installations.

This AC Type RCBO detects sinusoidal alternating residual currents, while its B tripping characteristic is suited to circuits with relatively low inrush currents. By integrating residual current and miniature circuit-breaker functions within one protective device, the DS203 AC-B16/0.03 helps simplify distribution-board design and provides dedicated protection for individual circuits.

With a rated current of 16 A, a rated residual operating current of 30 mA and a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA, the DS203 AC-B16/0.03 provides reliable protection for three-phase circuits. Its three-pole configuration and DIN rail format make it suitable for commercial distribution boards, industrial control panels and other fixed electrical installations.

Reliable Protection for Three-Phase Circuits

RCBOs combine residual current protection with overload and short-circuit protection in a single device. This allows individual electrical circuits to be protected against several common fault conditions while reducing the need for separate residual current devices and miniature circuit breakers.

The DS203 AC-B16/0.03 uses an AC Type residual current characteristic for sinusoidal alternating earth fault currents and a B tripping characteristic for circuits with relatively low starting currents. Its integrated protection functions make it suitable for a broad range of commercial and industrial three-phase distribution applications.

Typical Applications

• Commercial electrical distribution boards.
• Industrial three-phase circuits.
• Control panels and electrical enclosures.
• Lighting and general-purpose electrical circuits.
• Circuits with relatively low starting currents.
• Installations requiring combined residual current and overcurrent protection.
