Chint NL1-63-216/10 RCD – 2P – 16A – 10mA
Chint NL1-63-216/10 residual current circuit breaker, a 16A 2 pole 10mA RCCB designed for earth leakage and residual current protection in low voltage electrical installations.
Why Choose the Chint NL1-63-216/10 RCCB?
The Chint NL1-63-216/10 is a compact and reliable residual current circuit breaker designed to provide earth leakage protection in low voltage electrical installations. As part of the Chint NL1-63 RCCB series, it is used to detect residual current faults and disconnect the circuit when leakage current is present, helping improve electrical safety in domestic, commercial and industrial distribution systems.
The NL1-63 range is designed for circuit protection applications where protection against electric shock, indirect contact and fire risk from insulation faults is required. Its magnetic residual current operating principle provides dependable tripping performance without relying on an auxiliary supply, making it suitable for a wide range of distribution boards and consumer units.
With a 16A rated current, 2 pole configuration and 10mA residual current sensitivity, the NL1-63-216/10 is suitable for applications requiring highly sensitive earth leakage protection. It is ideal for final circuits, small loads and installations where fast disconnection is required to reduce the risk of electric shock.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Chint NL1-63-216/10 used for?
It is used to provide residual current and earth leakage protection in low voltage electrical installations.
What current rating does this RCCB have?
The NL1-63-216/10 has a rated current of 16A.
What does the 10mA rating mean?
The 10mA rating refers to the residual operating current sensitivity, meaning the device is designed to trip when earth leakage reaches approximately 10mA.
How many poles does this device have?
This model has a 2 pole configuration, making it suitable for single-phase circuits where both live and neutral are switched.
Does this RCCB provide overload protection?
No. An RCCB provides residual current protection only and should be used with appropriate overcurrent protection such as an MCB or fuse.
