Why Choose the ABB DS201T C16 APR30 RCBO?
The ABB DS201T C16 APR30 is a high-performance 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 ABB DS200 / DSH200 RCBO family, the DS201T range is specifically suited to railway, rolling stock and traction electrical installations where dependable circuit protection and resistance to unwanted tripping are important.
This RCBO combines overcurrent and residual-current protection in a single DIN-rail device. Its APR residual-current characteristic provides enhanced resistance to unwanted tripping while detecting sinusoidal alternating and pulsating DC earth fault currents, helping maintain continuity of service in demanding electrical installations.
With a rated current of 16 A, C tripping characteristic, 30 mA residual-current sensitivity and 6 kA rated short-circuit capacity, the DS201T C16 APR30 provides comprehensive protection for resistive and inductive single-phase loads. Its 1P+N configuration switches both line and neutral while providing overcurrent protection on the line conductor.
