ELECO Launches Type B RCBO: Redefining Residual Current Protection for Diverse Electrical Environments
Wenzhou ELECO Electric Technology Co., Ltd., a leading manufacturer in the global residual current protection device sector, has recently launched its new Type B Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection(RCBO) — a cutting-edge solution designed to meet the evolving safety demands of modern electrical systems, spanning from smart homes to industrial facilities.
This new RCBO series adheres to strict international standards, including IEC 62423 and IEC 61009-1, ensuring reliable performance and compatibility in global markets. It offers a wide range of rated currents (In: 16, 25, 32, 40, 50, 63A) and residual current sensitivities (IΔn: 30, 100, 300mA), making it adaptable to diverse load requirements. With a breaking capacity of 6kA and an IP20 protection degree, the Type B Rcbo provides robust protection against overloads, short circuits, and residual currents even in harsh environments.
A standout advantage of the Type B design is its ability to detect and respond to residual currents with DC components — a critical feature for applications involving new energy equipment (e.g., solar inverters, EV charging stations), smart home appliances, and industrial machinery. Unlike standard types, the Type B RCBO enables seamless protection in scenarios with DC leakage risks, filling a long-standing technical gap in traditional Residual Current Devices.
Upholding ELECO’s philosophy of “Safety Through Innovation”, this product has undergone rigorous testing and obtained certifications such as CE and CB, ensuring unquestionable reliability. An R&D leader at ELECO stated, “Our Type B Rcbo is more than just a component — it is a safety barrier for systems that demand the highest levels of precision and adaptability.”
Whether for retrofitting existing installations or integrating into brand-new smart buildings, ELECO’s Type B Rcbo demonstrates the company’s professional strength in the field of electrical protection. If needed, you can contact our team for customized support.
