Why Choose the ABB DS201C40APR100 RCBO?
The ABB DS201C40APR100 is a compact and reliable 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to protect single-phase circuits against overloads, short circuits and residual earth fault currents. As part of the established ABB DS200 / DS201 RCBO range, it combines residual-current and overcurrent protection in one DIN-rail device for residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations.
This RCBO features a 40 A rated current, C tripping characteristic and 100 mA Type A residual-current sensitivity. Its APR high-immunity characteristic provides increased resistance to unwanted tripping caused by transient disturbances, helping maintain continuity of service while providing dependable residual-current protection.
With a 6 kA rated short-circuit capacity, the DS201C40APR100 provides coordinated protection for single-phase circuits in a compact format. Its 1P+N configuration, Type A APR residual-current protection and robust ABB construction make it suitable for circuits where dependable overcurrent and earth-leakage protection are required.

Reliable Protection for Single-Phase Circuits
RCBOs such as the ABB DS201 combine miniature circuit breaker and residual-current protection functions in a single device. This enables the DS201C40APR100 to disconnect a circuit in response to overloads, short circuits and residual currents while reducing the need for separate overcurrent and residual-current protective devices.
The APR characteristic provides enhanced immunity to unwanted tripping while retaining Type A residual-current detection for sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual currents. This makes the DS201C40APR100 particularly useful in installations where transient disturbances may occur and continuity of service is important.
Typical Applications
- Residential electrical distribution boards.
- Commercial building electrical systems.
- Industrial single-phase auxiliary circuits.
- General power and fixed-load circuits.
- Building services and fixed electrical equipment.
- Circuits requiring enhanced immunity to unwanted residual-current tripping.
