Why Choose the ABB FS403M-C16/0.03 RCBO?
The ABB FS403M-C16/0.03 is a 3P+N Type A residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed for the ABB SMISSLINE TP plug-in system. It combines overload, short-circuit and residual-current protection in a single four-pole device, providing comprehensive protection for three-phase final circuits with neutral in residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations.
This FS403M model has a 16 A rated current, C tripping characteristic and 30 mA rated residual operating current. Its Type A residual-current characteristic provides protection against the effects of sinusoidal alternating and pulsating DC earth-fault currents, while the 30 mA sensitivity provides additional protection against direct contact in appropriate installations.
With a rated voltage of 415 V AC and a 10 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity according to EN 61009-1, the FS403M-C16/0.03 is suited to demanding distribution applications. Integrated DTI earth-fault indication assists fault identification, while direct connection to the SMISSLINE TP plug-in system supports efficient installation, servicing and circuit replacement.
