Why Choose the ABB DS201 B6 A100 RCBO?
The ABB DS201 B6 A100 is a compact and reliable residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase circuits against overloads, short circuits and earth leakage faults. As part of the ABB DS200 / DS201 RCBO range, it combines residual current and overcurrent protection in a single modular device for residential, commercial and industrial electrical distribution.
This RCBO provides a 6 A rated current, B tripping characteristic and 100 mA Type A residual current sensitivity. Type A residual current protection detects sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual currents, while the B characteristic is suited to circuits with relatively low inrush currents.
With a 1P+N configuration, 230 V AC rated voltage and 6 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity, the DS201 B6 A100 provides comprehensive protection in a compact two-module DIN-rail format. ABB order code 2CSR255180R2065 identifies this specific 6 A, B-curve, Type A, 100 mA version.
Key Advantages
- Combines residual current, overload and short-circuit protection in one device.
- 6 A rated current for lower-current single-phase circuits.

Combined Residual Current and Overcurrent Protection
RCBOs such as the ABB DS201 combine the functions of a miniature circuit breaker and residual current protective device. The DS201 B6 A100 therefore protects the connected single-phase circuit against overload and short-circuit currents while also disconnecting the supply when residual current to earth reaches the device's operating threshold.
The Type A residual current characteristic provides detection of sinusoidal alternating and pulsating direct residual currents. Combined with its 100 mA sensitivity, B tripping characteristic and compact 1P+N construction, the DS201 B6 A100 provides practical protection for suitable residential, commercial and industrial electrical circuits.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase electrical distribution circuits.
- Residential and commercial installations.
- Lighting and building-services circuits.
- Control and auxiliary circuits.
- Circuits supplying electronic equipment.
- Industrial control panels and distribution boards.
