Why Choose the ABB DS202 AC-B16/0.03 RCBO?
The ABB DS202 AC-B16/0.03 is a two-pole Type AC residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to provide residual-current, overload and short-circuit protection within a single modular device. Part of ABB’s DS200 series, it provides dedicated protection for individual circuits in residential, commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems.
With a rated current of 16 A, a B-curve tripping characteristic and a rated residual operating current of 30 mA, the DS202 AC-B16/0.03 protects against overcurrents while responding to sinusoidal alternating residual currents. Its 30 mA sensitivity provides additional protection against direct contact as well as protection against the effects of indirect contact.
The DS202 AC-B16/0.03 is rated at 230 V AC and provides a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA. Its two-pole design protects both poles, while its combined MCB and residual-current functions provide a compact solution for circuits requiring individual fault isolation and comprehensive electrical protection.
Key Advantages
- Combined RCBO protection against residual current, overload and short circuit in one device.
- 30 mA residual-current sensitivity provides additional protection against electric shock.
- 16 A rated current suitable for a wide range of final circuits.
- B-curve characteristic is suited to circuits with relatively low normal starting and inrush currents.
- Type AC residual-current detection responds to sinusoidal alternating earth-fault currents.
- 6 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity to IEC/EN 61009 requirements.
- Two protected poles provide comprehensive protection for the connected circuit.

Combined Residual-Current and Overcurrent Protection
An RCBO combines residual-current protection and miniature circuit breaker functions within a single protective device. The ABB DS202 AC-B16/0.03 protects its circuit against earth-fault currents as well as overload and short-circuit conditions, enabling individual circuit protection without requiring separate RCCB and MCB devices to perform these functions.
Its Type AC characteristic responds to sinusoidal alternating residual currents, while the B-curve 16 A characteristic is suited to circuits with relatively low normal inrush currents. Combined with 30 mA residual-current sensitivity and a 6 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity, the DS202 AC-B16/0.03 provides dependable protection for suitable residential, commercial and industrial final circuits.
Typical Applications
- Residential electrical distribution boards.
- Commercial electrical distribution systems.
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Final circuits requiring 16 A B-curve overcurrent protection.
- Circuits requiring 30 mA additional residual-current protection.
- Electrical installations requiring dedicated two-pole RCBO protection and individual fault isolation.
