Hager ADC232B 32 Amps 1 Pole RCBO Safety Switch 10kA 30mA Type A C Curve 1 Module DIN Rail 230-240V

Description

32 A with 10 kA breaking capacity, one module.

The Hager ADC232B protects a 32 A final circuit with a high 10 kA breaking capacity in a single 17.8 mm module. It suits larger circuits, such as dedicated appliance or sub-circuit feeds, on boards where the prospective fault current runs above 6 kA.

10 kA for High Fault Levels

Breaking capacity is the maximum fault current a device can interrupt safely. The closer a board sits to the transformer or main supply, the higher the prospective short circuit current, and the higher the breaking capacity the protection needs. The ADC232B is rated to 10 kA against the common 6 kA, making it the choice for main and sub-main boards, larger commercial installations and any position where the fault level has been assessed above 6 kA.

32 A for Larger Final Circuits

The 32 A rating suits higher-current final subcircuits: dedicated appliance feeds, larger power circuits and sub-boards. The C curve tolerates the ordinary inrush of everyday equipment while tripping promptly on a genuine overload or short circuit, all in one 17.8 mm module that does the work of a separate MCB and RCD.

Type A Earth Leakage Sensing

As a Type A RCBO the ADC232B detects both sinusoidal AC earth leakage and pulsating DC earth leakage, unlike Type AC which detects only the AC component. With switch mode power supplies, inverters and variable speed drives now common on Australian final circuits, Type A is the practical baseline. It trips at a rated residual current of 30 mA.

Rated for Australian Conditions

Rated operational voltage is 230 - 240 V at 50 - 60 Hz, matching the Australian supply. Hager publishes a full derating curve: 32 A at 30 °C ambient, 30.30 A at 40 °C and 26.90 A at 60 °C, relevant in roof spaces, plant rooms and unventilated meter boxes. Storage and transport range is -40 to 70 °C, and the device is rated to 2000 m altitude.

Q: What is the breaking capacity of the Hager ADC232B?
A: It has a rated short circuit breaking capacity of 10 kA (Icn, IEC 60898-1), higher than the 6 kA of the standard ADC RCBO range. Choose it where the assessed prospective fault current at the board exceeds 6 kA.

Q: Is the Hager ADC232B single pole or 1P+N?
A: It is a 1 pole device with one protected pole in a single 17.8 mm module, protecting the active conductor. If you need a 1P+N version at a similar rating, look at the Hager ADC932T (6 kA).

Q: What can the 32 A ADC232B protect?
A: The 32 A C curve rating suits larger final circuits such as dedicated appliance feeds and sub-circuits, adding overload, short circuit and 30 mA earth leakage protection in a single module.
