Why Choose the Lovato P1RE1NB16A300 16 A Type A RCBO?
The Lovato P1RE1NB16A300 is a 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to combine overload, short-circuit and residual current protection in a single modular device. Part of the Lovato P1RE range, it provides a compact protection solution for compatible low-voltage electrical distribution systems.
Rated at 16 A, the P1RE1NB16A300 features a B tripping curve, Type A residual current characteristic and 300 mA rated residual operating current. Type A protection detects sinusoidal AC residual currents as well as pulsating DC residual currents, making it suitable for circuits supplying a broad range of modern electrical equipment.
The P1RE1NB16A300 provides a 10 kA short-circuit rating and combines its protective functions within a 1P+N configuration. Its 300 mA residual current sensitivity makes it particularly relevant where higher-sensitivity earth leakage protection is specified for equipment or installation protection rather than the 30 mA additional protection commonly selected for personnel protection.
Key Advantages

- 1P+N pole configuration.
- 16 A rated current.
- B tripping curve.
- Type A residual current characteristic.
- 300 mA rated residual operating current IΔn.
- 10 kA short-circuit rating.
- Combined residual current and overcurrent protection.
- Suitable for modular low-voltage distribution systems.
Combined Overcurrent and Residual Current Protection
An RCBO combines the protective functions of a miniature circuit breaker and a residual current device within one unit. The Lovato P1RE1NB16A300 therefore provides protection against overloads and short circuits while also monitoring the circuit for residual earth leakage currents, reducing the need for separate overcurrent and residual current protective devices.
With its 16 A B-curve characteristic, 300 mA Type A residual current sensitivity and 10 kA short-circuit rating, the P1RE1NB16A300 is suited to applications where these protection characteristics are specified. The 300 mA residual current rating should be selected according to the requirements of the installation and applicable electrical regulations.
Typical Applications
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control and distribution panels.
- Single-phase electrical circuits.
- Equipment and machinery circuit protection.
- Circuits requiring Type A residual current detection.
- Installations specified for 300 mA residual current protection.
