Why choose it

The DRCBO 4 C16/0.03/3N-B SK offers a space-saving solution by integrating overcurrent and residual current protection in one device. Its Type B residual current detection makes it suitable for circuits with DC fault currents, which are common in modern installations with electronic equipment. The high 10 kA breaking capacity ensures safe interruption even under high fault conditions, while the C-curve characteristic handles moderate inrush currents without nuisance tripping.

Ideal use cases

• Protection of three-phase circuits feeding frequency converters or UPS systems
• EV charging infrastructure requiring Type B residual current protection
• Industrial control panels with mixed loads and potential DC leakage
• Medical locations where reliable fault current detection is critical
• Renovation projects where space in the distribution board is limited
