FuseBox Mini RCBO (Bi-Directional) – Type A, B Curve (6A–40A) | RTAM Series
Description
FuseBox Mini RCBO (Bi-directional) RTAM Series is a very compact, highly flexible protection device for contemporary electrical installations. The RCBOs integrate residual current protection and overload protection within a single space-saving module.
Bi-directional capability also renders the RTAM Series perfectly suited for installations where energy flow is in both directions — an excellent fit for solar PV, battery storage, and EV charging installations. Its Type A protection trips reliably for AC and pulsating DC leakage currents, offering a dependable solution for residential and commercial installations.
Rated from 6A–40A, these B-Curve tripping characteristic RCBOs are ideal for general lighting, appliance, and radial circuits. They provide a compact, safe, and reliable solution and are a first choice for new, multi-directional installations.
