Why Choose the Lovato P1RE1NC16AC030 RCBO?
The Lovato P1RE1NC16AC030 is a compact residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to provide combined protection against overloads, short circuits and residual earth leakage currents in low-voltage electrical installations. As part of the Lovato P1RE series, it combines miniature circuit breaker and residual current protection functions within a single DIN rail mounted device.
Featuring a 1P+N configuration, 16 A rated current, C tripping curve and 30 mA rated residual current, the P1RE1NC16AC030 provides individual circuit protection while reducing the need for separate MCB and RCD devices. Its Type AC residual current characteristic is designed for detection of sinusoidal alternating residual currents.
The 30 mA residual current sensitivity makes this RCBO suitable for circuits requiring additional protection against electric shock, subject to the requirements of the installation. Its modular format and standard DIN rail mounting make it suitable for distribution boards, control panels and other low-voltage electrical protection systems.

- Designed for low-voltage single-phase circuits.
- Standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting.
Combined Residual Current and Overcurrent Protection
RCBOs combine the functions of a miniature circuit breaker and a residual current device in a single protective component. The Lovato P1RE1NC16AC030 therefore protects the connected circuit against overload and short-circuit conditions while also detecting residual currents caused by insulation faults or leakage to earth.
The Type AC characteristic is intended for circuits where sinusoidal alternating residual currents may occur, while the C-curve overcurrent characteristic is suitable for many general-purpose circuits with moderate starting currents. With a residual current sensitivity of 30 mA, the P1RE1NC16AC030 provides additional protection against electric shock when applied in accordance with the relevant electrical installation requirements.
Typical Applications
- Low-voltage electrical distribution boards.
- Commercial and general electrical installations.
- Single-phase branch circuit protection.
- Circuits requiring combined overcurrent and residual current protection.
- Circuits requiring 30 mA additional residual current protection.
- DIN rail mounted electrical protection systems.
