Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection DS201 C16 AC30

This circuit breaker combines overcurrent and residual current protection, providing comprehensive protection in electrical installations. It is a key device for safe use, protecting against electric shock and damage caused by overloads and short circuits. Manufactured by ABB, model DS201 C16 AC30 is a solid choice for both professional installers and end users.

Construction and application

The DS201 C16 AC30 circuit breaker is a two-pole (1P+N) device, which means it protects both the phase and neutral conductors. Its C characteristic makes it well suited for handling impulse loads, such as starting motors or devices with heating elements. The rated current of 16A is suitable for most standard circuits in residential and commercial buildings. The use of a residual current device with a sensitivity of 30mA (AC type) ensures a quick response to leakage currents, minimizing the risk of electric shock.

• Versatile application: ideal for protecting lighting circuits, socket circuits and electrical appliances in residential, office and industrial buildings.
• DIN rail mounting: standard DIN rail mounting simplifies installation and device replacement in the distribution board.
• 2 module width: compact dimensions allow for efficient use of space in the distribution board.
• Rated breaking capacity 6kA: ensures effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a short circuit.

Parameters and construction features

The DS201 C16 AC30 circuit breaker has been designed for reliability and durability. Its construction meets strict safety standards (compliance with EN 61009-1), and the high quality of materials guarantees a long service life. The cross-section of the connectable multi-wire cable from 0.75 mm² to 16 mm² provides flexibility when selecting cables for the installation. The device operates at temperatures from -25°C to +55°C, allowing it to be used in various environmental conditions. Additionally, it has energy limitation class 3, which proves its high effectiveness in suppressing short-circuit energy. The rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is as high as 4kV, providing additional safety during overvoltages.
