Why Choose the CHINT NB2LE-B16 RCBO?
The CHINT NB2LE-B16 is a compact 1P+N Residual Current Operated Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO) that combines overload, short-circuit and earth leakage protection within a single modular device. As part of the reliable CHINT NB2LE RCBO series, it is manufactured to IEC/EN 61009-1 and provides dependable protection for residential, commercial and light industrial electrical installations.
Featuring a 16 A rated current, B tripping characteristic and 30 mA residual operating current, the NB2LE-B16 is ideal for lighting circuits, socket outlets and other final circuits with low inrush currents. The integrated RCBO design simplifies installation while reducing the space required inside consumer units and distribution boards.
With a 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, 230/240 V AC rated voltage and compact DIN rail mounting, the CHINT NB2LE-B16 delivers reliable protection for modern low-voltage electrical systems.
