Lewden RCBO-B20/30/SPA – 20A Type A RCBO with 30mA Sensitivity
The Lewden RCBO-B20/30/SPA is a compact and highly reliable 20A Type A RCBO designed to deliver comprehensive circuit protection for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical installations. Engineered for modern safety standards, this residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) combines overload, short-circuit, and residual current detection in a single DIN rail-mountable unit.
Designed with a B-curve tripping characteristic, the Lewden RCBO responds rapidly to fault conditions, disconnecting the circuit before damage can occur.
The 30mA residual current sensitivity protects against electric shock and earth faults, ensuring user safety in everyday environments. It's ideally suited for consumer units and distribution boards, where compact size and efficient protection are essential.
This RCBO also features bi-directional power flow capability, enabling versatile installation options and improved system integration. Its Type A RCD function provides enhanced fault detection, including protection against pulsating DC components, which is especially important in circuits with modern electronic appliances and devices.
