Description
16A Curve B 30mA Bi-Directional A Type RCBO – Compact RCBO, Switched Line & Neutral, 6kA
Reliable Protection for Power and Solar Circuits – Niglon RCBO1-16/30SAX2 16A RCBO
Niglon RCBO1-16/30SAX2
The Niglon RCBO1-16/30SAX2 16A RCBO is a compact, bi-directional protective device, ideal for general-purpose circuits such as ring mains, lighting banks, and small fixed appliances. It delivers overload and 30mA residual current protection, along with essential features for modern installations.
This RCBO is fully bi-directional, which means it protects your circuit even when current flows in reverse. That makes it a perfect solution for solar PV systems, where exported energy from the inverter may travel back through the RCBO. Many standard RCBOs do not detect faults properly in these situations—so this model ensures peace of mind.
With Curve B tripping, Type A earth fault detection, and switched line and neutral, it supports safe, compliant, and space-efficient protection in both residential and light commercial boards.
