Hager ASX416U 16A C Curve 30mA RCBO
The Hager ASX416U 16A C Curve 30mA RCBO is intended for three-phase final circuits requiring 30mA Type A residual-current protection. Its C-curve characteristic allows for moderate energisation current while maintaining combined overload and short-circuit protection.
C-Curve Operation and 30mA Protection
With a 16A rating and 30mA sensitivity, this version may suit appropriate commercial three-phase final circuits. C-curve magnetic operation is typically within 5–10 × In, or approximately 80–160A at this rating. A 30mA residual-current threshold may be used for additional protection where the circuit design and regulations require it.
Planning the Installation
Check that upstream protective-device coordination and required disconnection times can be achieved in the finished installation. This is a C-curve product; substituting D curve changes the instantaneous-trip band and requires design verification.

Understanding B, C and D Trip Curves
B curve: typically 3–5 times rated current for instantaneous magnetic tripping, used for suitable low-inrush circuits. C curve: typically 5–10 times rated current, commonly specified for moderate inrush. D curve: typically 10–20 times rated current, considered for high-inrush loads such as some motors or transformers. Selected model: C curve. These bands describe magnetic tripping, not permissible continuous loading; the installed fault level and disconnection requirements must be verified.
The specific three-phase Hager range in this listing contains C- and D-curve models; no B-curve SKUs are included here.
