Residual Current Circuit Breakers – Safety and Installation Protection

This 1P+N residual current circuit breaker is a key element ensuring safety in electrical installations. The use of characteristic C makes it ideal for circuits with devices generating surge currents, such as motors or transformers. It protects the circuit against overload and short circuit – like most breakers in this class – and additionally provides protection to people against electric shock.

This breaker combines the functions of an overcurrent and residual current device, allowing for effective protection of both wires and users. Its compact design (2 module width) makes it easy to install in electrical distribution boards. A rated differential current of 300mA provides protection against the effects of leakage currents, which can pose a threat to health and life.

Construction and operating parameters

The DS201 C10 A300 breaker is designed for reliability and durability. Its housing made of high-quality materials provides resistance to mechanical damage and environmental conditions. Adapted to operate at temperatures from -25°C to 55°C, it will perform well in various installation conditions. The rated insulation voltage Ui of 500V guarantees safety even in installations with higher voltage.

The use of screw terminals allows connection of wires with a cross-section from 0.75 mm² to 16 mm², providing flexibility in selecting the appropriate cables. The breaker has a protection degree of IP20, which means protection against touching with a finger and against the ingress of solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. The rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6kA (according to EN 61009) ensures effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a short circuit.

Applications and benefits

• Overload protection: Prevents damage to wires and devices caused by excessive current draw.
• Short-circuit protection: Quickly disconnects the circuit in the event of a short circuit, minimizing the risk of fire and equipment damage.
• Shock protection: Protects users against electric shock from leakage currents of 300mA.
• Versatility: Suitable for use in lighting circuits, socket circuits and powering electrical appliances.
• Compact dimensions: Allow easy installation even in tight electrical distribution boards (2 module width).
• Durability: High quality workmanship guarantees long-lasting and trouble-free operation of the device.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of IEC/EN 61009-1 and IEC/EN 61009-2-1, confirming its safety and reliability.

Remember that the installation and testing of the breaker should be carried out only by a qualified electrician!
