Chint NB2LE-C16 RCBO – 1P+N – C Curve – Type AC – 16A – 30mA – 6kA

Why Choose the Chint NB2LE-C16 RCBO?

The Chint NB2LE-C16 is a compact and reliable Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO) designed to provide combined protection against overloads, short circuits and earth leakage faults. It is suitable for single-phase electrical installations where safety, circuit continuity and efficient panel design are essential.

As part of the Chint NB2LE RCBO series, this device combines the protection functions of an MCB and RCD in one DIN rail mounted unit. This helps reduce distribution board space, simplify wiring and provide dependable protection for people, cables and connected equipment.

With a rated current of 16 A, C curve tripping characteristic and 1P+N configuration, the NB2LE-C16 is ideal for general-purpose final circuits, socket outlets, lighting circuits and small inductive loads. Its Type AC residual current protection and 6 kA breaking capacity make it a practical choice for residential, commercial and light industrial installations.

Combined Protection for Electrical Circuits

RCBOs such as the Chint NB2LE-C16 are used to protect electrical circuits against both overcurrent faults and residual current leakage. This means the device can disconnect the supply if it detects overload, short circuit or earth leakage conditions that could present a risk to people or equipment.

The C curve characteristic makes this model suitable for circuits where moderate inrush currents may occur, such as socket circuits, lighting loads and small electrical equipment. Its compact format makes it particularly useful in modern consumer units, distribution boards and control panels where reliable protection must be achieved without wasting panel space.

Typical Applications

• Residential consumer units and final distribution boards.
• Commercial electrical distribution systems.
• Socket outlet circuits.
• Lighting circuits with moderate inrush current.
• Small office and retail installations.
• Light industrial control panels and equipment protection.
