About RCBOs — Combined Safety Switch and Circuit Breaker

An RCBO (Residual Current Breaker with Overcurrent protection) combines the functions of a safety switch (RCD) and a circuit breaker (MCB) into a single device — providing protection against earth leakage faults, overload currents, and short circuits in a single DIN rail module. This makes the RCBO the preferred choice for individual circuit protection in modern distribution boards, replacing the need for a separate RCD and MCB for each protected circuit.

The 30mA residual current sensitivity is the standard level required for personnel protection in Australian electrical installations under AS/NZS 3000 — tripping within a defined time when earth leakage current reaches 30mA, before it can cause serious injury. Type A detection covers both sinusoidal AC residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents, providing broader protection than Type AC devices — suited to circuits supplying modern electronic equipment, variable speed drives, and switch-mode power supplies.

The C tripping curve suits general resistive and inductive load circuits in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. The LSSO10/C003-A is part of the Eureka LSSO range — 10kA rated, 18mm wide, DIN rail mounted — and is compatible with the Eureka distribution board and enclosure system. Conforms to AS/NZS 61009 and must be installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with AS/NZS 3000.

Q: What is an RCBO and how does it differ from an RCD or MCB?
A: An RCBO combines an RCD (safety switch) and an MCB (circuit breaker) in one device — providing earth leakage, overload, and short circuit protection in a single 18mm DIN module. An RCD alone provides earth leakage protection only. An MCB alone provides overload and short circuit protection only.

Q: What does 30mA sensitivity mean?
A: The RCBO will trip when earth leakage current reaches 30mA — the standard sensitivity level required for personnel protection in Australian electrical installations per AS/NZS 3000.

Q: What is Type A earth leakage detection?
A: Type A detects both sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual currents — suitable for circuits supplying electronic equipment, computers, variable speed drives, and appliances with switch-mode power supplies. Type AC detects sinusoidal AC only.

Q: What is the C curve and what loads does it suit?
A: The C tripping curve suits general resistive and inductive load circuits — lighting, power points, appliances, and general wiring in residential and commercial installations.

Q: What is the breaking capacity of the LSSO10/C003-A?
A: The LSSO10/C003-A has a 10kA breaking capacity — suited to circuits where prospective fault current may reach up to 10,000A.

Q: Does the LSSO10/C003-A need to be installed by a licensed electrician?
A: Yes — installation of RCBOs in a distribution board must be carried out by a licensed electrician in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules.
