Why Choose the ABB DS201B16A30UL RCBO?
The ABB DS201B16A30UL is a compact and reliable 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase electrical circuits against overloads, short circuits and earth faults. As part of the ABB DS201 UL series, it combines residual-current and overcurrent protection in one device for electrical equipment, machinery and control-panel applications.
This RCBO features a 16 A rated current, 30 mA rated residual operating current and Type B tripping characteristic. Its Type A residual-current detection provides protection against sinusoidal alternating and pulsating DC residual currents, helping protect people, equipment and electrical installations.
With a 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a 1P+N configuration, the DS201B16A30UL provides combined circuit protection in a compact format. Its B characteristic is particularly suited to circuits with relatively low inrush currents, while the UL variant is intended for suitable electrical equipment and machinery requiring North American approvals.

Reliable Combined Circuit Protection
RCBOs such as the ABB DS201B16A30UL combine the functions of a miniature circuit breaker and residual-current protective device. This allows a single compact unit to disconnect a circuit in response to overloads, short circuits or potentially hazardous earth-fault currents, simplifying protection within electrical distribution and control panels.
The Type B overcurrent characteristic is suited to circuits with relatively low starting currents, while Type A residual-current detection responds to both sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC earth-fault currents. This combination makes the DS201B16A30UL suitable for protecting a broad range of electrical equipment and machinery.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and electrical equipment.
- OEM machine control panels.
- Single-phase electrical circuits.
- Commercial electrical equipment.
- Industrial control and automation systems.
- Electrical distribution and machine-building applications.
